This is > seriously weird... did you try renaming the file as .<something else> > and then trying to perform the same operations? I read somewhere that this problem could be due to incorrect mime type reported by my apache server. So, I fiddled around with mime.types file. Looking at mime entries for ppt and xls files( they could be accessed fine), I first changed description for doc files to application/vnd.ms-word doc It didnt work. So I again changed it back to application/msword And now its working without a hitch!! Basically the problem was as miraculous as the solution! I am also able to attach doc files in mail as attachments now. Its good that its working, but if anyone can..I would like to know the cause of such problems with a file type not being able to be uploaded from a machine at all., in any manner , be it httpd or mail attachments.

Issues with .DOC files ..please help..!
by अिनकॆत (Aniket) 01 Dec '06

I am using fedora core 5. I have my apache running perfectly. I have document root as /var/www/html There is a direcory "transfer" inside "/var/www/html" But when I put any *.doc file in "transfer", no one can access it. But they can access PDF files and all other files from the same directory , with same permissions set on all files.I tried settin chmod 755 on the files again. Still pdf, zip etc files go perfect , no luck with .doc files. I also upgraded to latest version of Apache too(2.2.2), still not working. I also tried lighttpd as suggested by a friend, same problem there. Also I am not able to upload .doc files as mail attachments in gmail/yahoo mail using Opera/Firefox/Konqueror. I can attach all other types of files though. So basically, its like .doc files are not going out of my box to anyone in any manner....I have disabled SElinux at boot itself. I am at my wits end...dunno what to do..please help. -- The Future is Open...The Future is LINUX
