Hello,
I can’t download a sql file.I got a error message:
The filetype you are attempting to upload is not allowed.

In my controller, i use $config[‘allowed_types’] = ‘log|sql’;
and in mimes.php, I put the line: ‘sql’  => ‘text/x-sql’,
but I have already problem to download my file.

Its just a text file.  Try ‘text/plain’ for the mime type.  And I assume the file is named with a sql extension, like something.sql?

hello,
I try your script, but it did not work any more. I had the same message:The filetype you are attempting to upload is not allowed.it is not work any more with the log file.
in mime.php(‘log’ => array(‘text/plain’, ‘text/x-log’))
but it works with the txt file, but I want to use log or sql file.
Does some body have a solution?

very strange,
I get the mime of my sql file by: echo $_FILES[‘userfile’][‘type’] in the my function and it give me
application/octet-stream.
so I replace in mime.php (‘sql’  => ‘application/octet-stream’)
and abrakadabra, it worked well.
