Typically in the past, when I have seen this error message, I have added
this to the web.xml file of Tomcat..

    <mime-mapping>
        <extension>zip</extension>
        <mime-type>application/application-octet</mime-type>
    </mime-mapping>
This seems to be more of an issue with Firefox. I know it worked previously.
I am using WIndows, but can try from Linux tomorrow and see. This function
has previously worked, so it looks like it may be just a browser issue.
Strange..
