No, I meant running this command in console.

Do you mean mime_content_type("file /path/to/file")? If so, that
returns the error, "mime_magic: invalid mode 0156130."

Does this work: `file /path/to/file.ppt` ?

Description:
Certain Office files do not return an accurate MIME content type with
mime_content_type. Excel and Powerpoint, for example, return an
application/msword type, while Access returns text/plain. Images,
text, and Word files return correctly. These files were generated in
Office 2002 for Windows.
Configuration options:
--with-mime-magic
>From php.ini:
mime_magic
mime_magic support => enabled
Directive => Local Value => Master Value
mime_magic.magicfile => /usr/share/file/magic.mime =>
/usr/share/file/magic.mime
Reproduce code:
---
mime_content_type("/some/path/to/xls-file");
mime_content_type("/some/path/to/ppt-file");
mime_content_type("/some/path/to/mdb-file");
Expected result:
application/msexcel
application/mspowerpoint
application/msaccess
Or some variation (vnd, x-, etc.).
Actual result:
--
application/msword
application/msword
text/plain
--
