I found a fix for the issue.
While I am not sure what is causing it (firefox or ubuntu) the problem is in
the mimeTypes.rdf. delete the file while firefox is not running and the
problem is gone.
Whenever firefox downloads a file with a wrong mimetype it will record
the broken mimetime along the
This bug is still affects firefox 39 and 40. So, I created a simple
upload page (http://npd.hol.es/upload.php) to make sure it's fixed or
not. This upload script will only allow to upload .rar (Winrar) / .srt
(Subtitle) files.
But I get 'Invalid file format' error for every file I upload, even

I'm reopening the bug for firefox 16.0.1.
I find it whenever trying to upload files to anagrafericerca.unibo.it.
Unfortunately, this is a site with restricted access, so it cannot be
used for debugging.
However, when trying to upload a pdf file with firefox, the site
responds
IL TIPO DEL FILE
Then I will confirm this bug.

Obviously, I double checked with other browsers that it is not the destination
site to get confused.
Google chrome uploads files to anagrafericerca.unibo.it without any problem.

Hi,
I am not anymore able to reproduce the issue. Yet, I cannot exactly say
if this is because of firefox having been fixed or environmental
conditions being changed...

I'm quite sure this is not an Ubuntu bug, but a Firefox one. I have the
same problem on a Mac, and a Windows machine. The workaround (not the
solution, which should come from Mozilla) is the one pointed out in
comments #8 and #19.

Changed source package to reflect new no versioning of Packages.
Marked as confirmed since a few people are seeing this bug.

Mozilla and drop the link to the Mozilla bug here so we can track it.

Well, I'm sure this is not an Ubuntu bug, as I explained, so this is

Here is the message given by the website:

When I posted PDF files using Firefox the MIME-type was being set to
text/html. However, I noticed in
~/.mozilla/firefox/xxx.default/mimeTypes.rdf the following entry

Yes, it is still an issue with 3.0.11 from Jaunty. For me, PDFs are
uploaded with mime type application/x-download.

I am currently stuck with exactly the same problem, but using Firefox 3
/ Ubuntu Hardy.
Uploading the File via Konqueror sends the mimetype application/pdf.
Uploading exactly the same File via Firefox sends mimetype
application/x-application.
Could this probably be caused by a faulty extension?
do you still see this bug in up-to-date gutsy?
