Template .zip file upload not working

alexgorges44

Hello, on the latest version 9.8.1, I am having issues on Windows uploading template zip files. I believe the issue is that the mime-type on Windows is x-zip-compressed, but it looks like the code only checks for the standard application/zip. Anyway, the upload fails and I am getting this error:

This file type (zip) is not accepted, the accepted file types are: zip

Thanks!

We are aware of this problem, and we have found a fix for it

New release should be next week, when you will have the fixed version available for installation

Thank you for your understanding!

Still having issues. Is there a work around?

Windows uses a non-standard mime type for uploaded zip files, using "application/x-zip-compressed" instead of "application/zip".

We have prepared a modification for a patch, in the meantime you can either upload your zip file from a Mac/Linux machine, or modify the file /administrator/components/com_acym/classes/mail.php and remove the lines "$allowedFileType = false;" near the line 720.
