> Key: LIBCLOUD-433
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-433
> Project: Libcloud
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Storage
> Affects Versions: 0.13.2
> Reporter: Michael Farrell
>
> Whenever uploading a file using libcloud, it will throw an exception if there
> is no content-type specified and it cannot guess the content-type from the
> file extension.
> Somewhere along the line of django-randomfilenamestorage, django-storages and
> libcloud (I suspect in django-storages), the content-type of the file will be
> stripped if the browser passes a content-type on an uploaded file of
> application/octet-stream.
> When this lands in libcloud.storage.base.StorageDriver._upload_object,
> libcloud attempts to guess the file's content-type from it's extension if
> none is supplied. When this fails, an AttributeError is raised.
> Instead of throwing an exception, why not send the content-type of unknown
> bytestreams: application/octet-stream.
> Patch is incoming.
