MIME types

Issues with MIME Types

When you are using the Webware provided Webserver, chances are that Microsoft documents are not recognised. The reason for that is that the python module mimetypes doesn't have them predefined.

Do one of the following:

• add a fully functional "mime.types" file reference into the "knownfiles" list

• add the correct mimetype in the "types_map". "doc" documents have the type application/msword
