On my XAMPP server I have PyroCMS installed. Version 2.1.4 to be exact. When I go to upload files via the file browser in the admin page it will work. I installed the same version on my hosting platform and whenever I go to upload a PNG file it won’t work. This is the error I get:

The filetype you are attempting to upload is not allowed.

I checked the file size limits and changed them to no avail. I was then told I should check the mime type of the image and see if that type is in the CodeIgniter mime type declarations. I did that and it came back as: image/png. Which was in fact in the declaration in and array with image/x-png. Does anyone have an idea of what’s going on here? PNG is in the allowed file types and I am well out of ideas…

    I fixed it. Adding text/plain as a MIME type to the PNG array in CodeIgniter fixed it.
