(22)Invalid argument: Cannot map GET "FileName" HTTP/1.1 to file

First of all sorry for my english i'm a French/Canadian...

On our Apache 2.2 little web server we only have about 20-30 .PDF
files and we send emails to our customers with links pointing to
the .PDF.

When our customers right-click on the link and do a "Save As" no
problems at all the fil is downloaded and all work perfectly. But when
the file is bigger than about 100 kb and they try to open the link
directly (by left-clicking it) it does'nt work.

Here is the error that it gave me in the error.log :

[Tue Sep 18 08:14:18 2007] [error] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]
(22)Invalid argument: Cannot map GET /RprSpe/7/DESSIN%20D'ATELIER/
Raccords%20PVC%20\xe9gout/racpvc.pdf HTTP/1.1 to file

Thanks in advance for your help...

Do not use special characters (space, apostrophe, e acute ...)
in file names. Replace space with underline, replace "e acute"
with ASCII "e", omit apostrophe.

Ok thanks it work whitout all the special characters.

But can you explain why it work when i do a right-click ans "Save As"
and not with a left click when the file is bigger than about 100kb and
have special characters?

Only when you supply a sample page that shows this effect.
