[opencms-dev] Wrong content type of binary files in downloadgallery

[Ronald Lips]

Alexandar,
 
Thanks for your quick reply. I took the following actions:

*	
	stopped Tomcat
*	
	opened opencms.jar in opencms/WEB-INF/Lib
*	
	Extracted mimetypes.properties in the org.opencms.loader package
*	
	added a line 3gp=video/3gp to this file
*	
	put the mimetypes.properties back in the jar file
*	
	started Tomcat

The result is still the same. Am I doing something wrong?
 
thanks
Ronald

You need to add this to the "mimetypes.properties" located in the
org.opencms.loader package.
 
Please let me know which mime types we are missing so we can include
this in the release version due later this week.

Best Regards,
Alex.

	Hi, 

	I have created a download gallery in OpenCms beta 2 Corrin. I
have added a 3GP video file to this download gallery. In a web page I
have created a link to this 3GP file that end users can select to
download the file. When downloading, the file is not opened by the
default player for 3GP files on my system (Quicktime), but by my
browser. This means I get to see the binary content of the file instead
of a popup window asking me to open the file in my player or to store it
on disk.

	In my opinion, the cause of this is that the content type set by
OpenCms for a 3GP file is text/html. This causes the browser to open the
file. I have taken the following actions to set the content type
correctly to video/3gpp:

	*	Added a MIME type for the 3gp extension in the web.xml
of my Tomcat installation and restarted Tomcat 
	*	Added a MIME type for the 3gp extension in the web.xml
of OpenCms and restarted OpenCms 
	*	Added 3gp as binary content in the opencms-vfs.xml 
		

	None of these actions worked. Does anyone know the solution to
this? 

	Thanks 
	Ronald
