I've tweaked the MimeTypes on the Apache2 server side of things.  OXT
was named in the array of allowed filetypes in the MediaWiki, but was
not explicitly defined as a MimeType in the mime.types config file for
apache.  I think that's why the error was showing up.

Try again, and see of the change has had the effect I'm hoping it has.
