Unable to upload .ppt files even after specifing the mime type

837 views Asked by At

I am using uploadifive to upload my files. I am having problem uploading only ppt files while other files specified in the fileType are uploaded. What is going wrong? here is my code

    $(function() {
    $('#file_upload').uploadifive({
        'fileSizeLimit' : 5000,
        'fileType'     : [
            'image/jpeg',
            'image/png',
            'application/pdf',
            'text/csv',
            'text/plain',
            'application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document',
            'application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet',
            'application/vnd.ms-excel',
            'application/vnd.ms-powerpoint',
            'application/mspowerpoint',
            'application/x-mspowerpoint',
            'application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.presentation',
            'application/msword',
            'application/csv',
            'application/excel'
        ],
        'uploadScript' : '{{url('file/uploads')}}',
        'formData'     : {
            '_token'     : '{{csrf_token()}}'
        },
        'onInit': addFiles
    });

});

Even though the ppt mime type is specified I get an error that it is not accepted.Here is a screenshot of the error. enter image description here

One possibility is the server does know about the file and doesn't want to serve it?

You should check your server's settings and add a support for the file extensions.
