I´m having problems with the attached files of the type .rar. I have formed the MIMES from the control panel hereby:
Quote:Extension: rar
MIME Type: application/rar
Maximum Size: 5120
Icon: /images/rar.gif
On having tried to download the attached file it recognizes the file since .pdf, being opened the Adobe Reader 6.0 in my case. I believe that produces a confusion with the type of file. I tried erasing the Type of MIME (.pdf) but it continues without working. I examined the configuration in my server and there are no problems. I wait for your help
.
Thanks!
application/x-compressed
application/x-rar
application/x-rar-compressed
Try these 3 mime types. (one at a time of course)
Thx labrocca!. Solved problem
I continue having problems with some attached files with extension .rar. Some of them download without problems but others don´t work. I try the 3 mime types. What´s the cause of the problem?
Others don't work how? The download does not start? The downloaded attachment is corrupt? Be specific.
