[Mantisbt-help] File upload/download

[gary t. <gar...@sl...>]

Hi,

I am experiencing some difficulties with file uploads/downloads in 
Mantis 0.18.3. I'm using Netscape 7.1, and MS IE 6.0. Here is some of 
the relevant config.

config_inc.php
    $g_allow_file_upload    = ON;

    # Upload destination: specify actual location in project settings
    # DISK, DATABASE, or FTP.
    $g_file_upload_method    = DATABASE;

    # Maximum file size that can be uploaded
    # Also check your PHP settings (default is usually 2MBs)
    $g_max_file_size        = 5000000; # 5 MB

/etc/http.d/conf.d/php.conf
#
# PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language which attempts to make it
# easy for developers to write dynamically generated webpages.
#

LoadModule php4_module modules/libphp4.so

#
# Cause the PHP interpreter handle files with a .php extension.
#
<Files *.php>
    SetOutputFilter PHP
    SetInputFilter PHP
    LimitRequestBody 524288
</Files>

/etc/php.ini
; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = 2M

/etc/my.cnf
[mysqld]
datadir=/var/lib/mysql
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
set-variable = max_allowed_packet=5000000

All files I've tried to upload/download are well within these limits.

I can read xls, txt, and pdfs ok in Netscape. In IE only txt files seem 
to open ok.

Using Netscape when I  attempt to download a jpg or gif I get:
The image "..." cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

Using Netscape, or MS IE, when I try to download MS Word docs:
I get a dialog titled
File conversion
which prompts me to
Select the encoding that makes your document readable.
None of them do.

I've had a look through the Documentation, and issues in the Mantis 
bugtracker but can't see anything which helps me with this problem.

Does anyone have any pointers as to what I can do to be able to upload 
graphics, and Word docs? Or any type of doc?

TIA,

Gary Thomson
