[Xerte] Re: media upload - docx support

[Adam Read]

Hmm, tried adding:


*         application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document

*         and - application/vnd.openxmlformats

restarted IIS and cleared cache, but media upload still returns an invalid file error?

You add the mime types to the management page: Site, server settings.

Subject: [Xerte] media upload - docx support

Hi all

I'm using the media quota via on XOT (accessing through the LO properties menu) to upload exercise documents that I want students to download while they work through the learning object. I notice the file uploader will accept a '.doc' file but not a Word 2007/2010 '.docx'.

Is there a fix available to tell Xerte to allow for .docx uploads? All of our students and staff are running Office 2007 or newer so there are no end user compatibility issues there.

Cheers, Adam
