Can't load multiple PHP pages at once

if the image's suffic is jpg/png etc, I think still ok to use X-LiteSpeed-Location

the X-LiteSpeed-Location is like redirect (but internal not external), pass this file to web server(here litespeed) to handle it. so if the file name is .jpg, web server will think it a jpeg image and generate proper headers for it.

Unfortunately my site doesn't retain the extension of the file on the disk (but does in the database) - is there any way to trick LiteSpeed into thinking it's a .jpg?

I have an idea in your php script, create a temporary symbolic link to the file, like a.jpg, then "X-LiteSpeed-Location: /path/to/a.jpg". when download complete, delete a.jpg. or create a cron job, clean up these temporary soft link(a.jpg) which created 1 hours ago(for example).

Thanks, I'll give it a shot. Can I remove the symlink after the X-LiteSpeed-Location header? ie.

header('X-LiteSpeed-Location: /files/tmp/temp.png');
unlink('/files/tmp/temp.png');

When using them in that order I receive the following error in LiteSpeed:

detect loop redirection

No, can't.

since the temp.png not sent to user yet.
the 1st line is to tell litespeed web server, "please send this file to user"

maybe you have to

Thanks, I've got an idea for that now.

I am using the symlink option to send files to the user via X-LiteSpeed-Location (with the extension), but it seems that extension was not sent with it.

make sure you can serve image file with extension directly (i.e., MIME type is supported) before serve via X-LiteSpeed-Location.
