ID: 53035 Comment by: n dot delargy at ctidigital dot com Reported by: stuart at horuskol dot net Summary: finfo_file() returns incorrect mimetype Status: Bogus Type: Bug Package: Filesystem function related Operating System: Linux/Ubuntu 10.04 PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: I've also had this issue, using ZF Zend_Validate_File_MimeType a text/plain file (according to file -i /path/to/file.txt) is incorrectly identified as text/x-c in ubuntu 11.10 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-07-06 19:27:16] shawn at thesignchef dot com I am having the same issue still. Has this been fixed or is there a workaround. Thanks so much. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-11-09 16:57:47] stephane at emark dot nl Hi, I just want to say that I experience the same problem. As fel...@php.net mentionned, if you have any type of comments at the top of your file, the problem occurs. For example, if i try to get the mime type of a js file with comments at the top, it returns "text/x-c", if i remove the comments, then it returns "text/plain", which in and of itself is not correct as it should return 'text/javascript'. Any idea how to circumvent this problem other than removing all my comments ?!?! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-10-13 00:38:01] stuart at horuskol dot net "however, the command line tool 'mimetype' correctly identifies the file using the same library at '/usr/share/misc/magic'" I tested using the -M switch (as in my example/test script): mimetype -DM --database /usr/share/misc/magic /path/to/file/reset.css and this tells me the file is text/css on my platform - are you sure you're using the same magic database? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-10-12 07:52:11] ahar...@php.net I get the same result from the command line "file" program on Ubuntu 10.10: $ curl -s http://horuskol.net/reset.css | file --mime-type - /dev/stdin: text/x-c mimetype also believes it's C source: $ mimetype -DM reset.css > Data dirs are: /home/aharvey/.local/share, /usr/share/gnome, > /usr/local/share, /usr/share > Checking all magic rules > Value "/*" at offset 2 matches at /usr/share/mime/magic line 1136 reset.css: text/x-csrc The only way I can get mimetype to return text/css is if it also looks at the extension (ie is called without -M). I can't really see any way this is a PHP bug, given other programs using the same magic database are resulting in the same file being detected as C source. Closing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-10-11 15:39:35] fel...@php.net Strange... It's caused by the comment in the begin of the CSS file. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
