[Mediawiki-l] unsloved file upload mime conversion problem

Tue Feb 28 20:42:52 UTC 2006

silly file-upload problem: 
jpeg, png and pdf will grow (size: doubled) and damaged using Spezial:Upload 
I  try  in LocalSettings.php:
$wgMimeDetectorCommand= "file -bi";
$wgTrivialMimeDetection= <true | false>;
$wgVerifyMimeType = <true | false>;
$wgVerifyMimeType = <true | false>;
$wgStrictFileExtensions = <true | false>;
$wgCheckFileExtensions = <true | false>;

with different combinations with different output but no success 
e.g. command line "file -bi <filename>" returns correct image/jpeg -

Try Firefox 1.5.0.1 and IE 6.0.sp2

any suggestions?

wiki on Linux 2.6.13/php 4.4.2/mysql 4.1.18/apache 2.0.53

Thanks/Regards!
