[Solved] Attachment downloads are all .php files

[Stratis]

When I only use internet explorer 11, and ι download attachment file that is xxxx.rar the file ends in xxxx.php

Any fix or clue about this?

Thanks

Talk to your host about this as it's server issue.

[Stratis]

Lynne, I spoke with them today, they say that is IE 11 problem and not server issue
I don't know if that is true? Thanks for your respond

[Lynne]

I don't know about that as I do not use IE (I'm on a Mac). I do know I have seen this problem before on my own site and it was a server issue that my host was able to take care of.

Test on a different browser to rule out IE

[Stratis]

Yes Lynne, but they don't say that its there problem, and I don't know what to tell them to take care for me to.

ForceHSS, tested in all browsers even in IE 9 & 10 no issue, only with 11 and this not only for me, we asked many members that use IE and other that told us.

What do you have set in Attachment Manager > rar > Mime Type & Headers ?

[Stratis]

Content-type: application/rar is in the field

[Lynne]

According to http://www.freeformatter.com/mime-ty...ime-types-list , it should be:

application/x-rar-compressed

So, try that and see if you still have the same issue.

I have it as Content-type: application/rar and it works
Can you post a ss of what way you have it set up
