TOPIC: Bad Content-Type

Bad Content-Type 15 years ago #23905

when trying to download some document, it can be downloaded, but the content-type is "text/html" and not by the real file type. by this, the browser is confised, when it gives the "open with" option.

I tried disable/enable SEF, without success.

Is here some configuration for it? I can fint nothing related...

Joomla 1.7.0 an JoomDoc 3.1.2

OK. i will reply to my self :-) But for others, the problem is in administrator/components/com_joomdoc/libraries/joomdoc/filesystem/filesystem.php, where is condition (around line 462):
if (function_exists('mime_content_type')) {
    header('Content-Type: ' . mime_content_type($fullPath) . '; charset=UTF-8');
}

If the 'mime_content_type' function doesn't exists, there is not Content-Type header added to document, simply adding one else with fallback to 'octet-stream' solves this (for me):
if (function_exists('mime_content_type')) {
    header('Content-Type: ' . mime_content_type($fullPath) . '; charset=UTF-8');
} else {
    header('Content-type: octet-stream');
}


There exist the fileinfo functions in PHP too, but at my hosting they do not works...

Thanks to artio for great component (realy) and for great support (joke)...
