ID: 53035 Comment by: a dot lecca at gmail dot com Reported by: stuart at horuskol dot net Summary: finfo_file() returns incorrect mimetype Status: Feedback Type: Bug Package: Filesystem function related Operating System: Linux/Ubuntu 10.04 PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: On PHP 5.3.18 Keven will also trigger a text/x-asm mime type Also, confirming the Charlotte issue Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-11-29 14:34:54] stepan dot stepanov at gmail dot com The problem still exists (PHP 5.3.19) If i have csv file with names (e.g.) it is recognised as text/plan (that is expected) But when i have someone called 'charles' or 'charlotte' inside - my file is recognised as text/x-c (obviously dues to word 'char') ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-09-30 17:13:01] paj...@php.net Please try using this snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php5.3-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://windows.php.net/snapshots/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-09-29 11:00:33] DonJaime at donjaime dot de This problem occurs with no comment at the start of the file, too. Rather than giving up because "other programs using the same magic database are resulting in the same file being detected as C source" it might be worth putting in the extra few lines of code required to return the right mime type on the basis of the file extension, if it exists. Worldwide, this would save a lot of energy and frustration. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-12-12 12:08:56] n dot delargy at ctidigital dot com It may also be worth noting that the file was converted from an excel sheet to a text tab delimited and charset was us-ascii ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-12-12 12:06:42] n dot delargy at ctidigital dot com I've also had this issue, using ZF Zend_Validate_File_MimeType a text/plain file (according to file -i /path/to/file.txt) is incorrectly identified as text/x-c in ubuntu 11.10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
