Can anyone help me to configure a mimetype for .CAB files.
When uploading such a file I get the error mimetype unknown/unknown. I can not get it right, whichever type I create for it.
No doubt I'm doing something wrong but what? I'ld appreciate any help

tnx for reacting ghia. I tried several things. Set it as an octet-stream, set it as a compressed file(which it basically is), even used the application/vnd.ms-cab-compressed setting but all returned the error unknown/unknown. I'm stuck

Did you set it as an allowed upload for users and admins? Are you logged in as a user or an admin when uploading? XOOPS version? Version of wfdownloads? Size of file uploading? Is it larger than the preference set? What about PHP settings for uploads?

Yes, I did set it as allowed for both. I'm logged in as an admin but also tried as a user. I'm using xoops 2.4.4.
The upload is only a small 1mb (I have uploaded it now as a zip file!) while I have set the limit to 200mb (max_upload_size and wfdownloads config).

As it is for upload, it is also up to your browser and/or OS to specify the correct mime type.
