Uploading zip and rar file not working in codeigniter
codeigniter, file-upload, php
Solution
I have replaced the `mime.php` configuration for zip and rar to:
'zip' => array('application/x-zip', 'application/zip', 'application/x-zip-compressed','application/force-download','application/octet-stream'),
'rar' => array('application/x-rar', 'application/rar','application/x-rar-compressed','application/force-download','application/octet-stream'),
I have just added the `application/octet-stream` at the end.. for both the type and now i am able to upload both zip and rar... :) now i am happy
Problem
setting i have created for allowed type: ``` $config['allowed_types'] = 'doc|docx|pdf|xls|xlsx|rtf|txt|rar|zip'; ``` and in my mine.php ``` 'zip' => array('application/x-zip', 'application/zip', 'application/x-zip-compressed','application/force-download'), 'rar' => array('application/x-rar', 'application/rar','application/x-rar-compressed','application/force-download'), ``` this is all i have configured but when i do the zip or rar upload its shows me error that "The filetype you are attempting to upload is not allowed." PLEASE HELP ANY ONE .. THANKS IN ADVANCE..
