Hi,

Seems this is bug, I need to report this to our developer.

thank you!

Ok but please give also this information www.jomsocial.com/forum/groups/33255-dis...er-can-be-downloaded because the problem is not duplicated, is different problem:

1.- All non administrator users can't download files from discussions.
2.- If an administrator download a file (i can check with normal users because they can't download files) the file is downloaded corrupted.

Oh ya ya, I think that is bug as well.. thank you anyway

Hi,

To fix this open this file components/com_community/libraries/files.php, find this code :

@ob_end_clean();

while (ob_get_level()) {
 			ob_end_clean();
 		}

$fileDownloadLink = CRoute::_('index.php?option=com_community&view=files&task=downloadfile&type='.$data[$i]->type.'&id='.$data[$i]->id);

$fileDownloadLink = CRoute::_('index.php?option=com_community&view=files&task=downloadfile&type='.$type.'&id='.$data[$i]->id);
