Cfcontent and MIME types for MS outlook .MSG format

Hi
I am using a web service that returns the contents of a MSG file as a binary string.
I was hoping to use <cfcontent> to then be able to render the document on demand when the user required.
(e.g.)
<cfcontent type="application/vnd.ms-outlook"><cfoutput>#tostring(structDocument.filecontent)#</cfout put><cfabort />
However whenever I try to do this a dialogue box appears asking me to save or open the .cfm file instead of rendering the document like it would for the other file types. Opening the .cfm file, I can see that the content is pretty much intact.
(e.g.)
<cfcontent type="application/pdf"><cfoutput>#tostring(structDocument.filecontent)#</cfoutput><cfabor t />
WORKS
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

Hi Adam,
In the end, the only way that I could get it to work in all browsers was to create a temporary file. However, the cfheader info was useful, so thanks.
Michael
Code I used:
<cffile action="write"
file="#GetTempDirectory()#/#varFileName#"
output="#structDocument.Filecontent#"
>

<cfheader name="Content-Disposition" value="#var_content_dis#">
<cfheader name="Content-Length" value="#var_content_len#">
<cfcontent type="#var_content_type" file="#GetTempDirectory()#/#varFileName#">

Incorrect MIME type for XML Data Connection POST requests

It appears that Xcelsius 2008u2019s XML Data Connection logic does not specify the correct MIME type for the data it sends to the server in its POST request. Using an HTTP debug proxy, I was able to see that Xcelsius sends XML data in the POST, but is setting a content-type of u201Cx-www-form-urlencodedu201D. According to the W3C spec:
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#h-17.13.4.1
Data sent with a MIME type of u201Cxxu201D should be encoded as key?value pairs, like this:
key1=val1&key2=val2&Submit=Submit
So, what Xcelsius is doing is clearly incorrect. Worse, if your server process is a Java servlet, you may find that the POSTed data will be gobbled up by the servlet container and you wonu2019t be able to read it using a getInputStream(), or getReader() call because itu2019s already been processed by a call to the getParameter() method.
The correct mime type for POSTing an XML formatted request from Xcelsius should be "text/xml".

Hi,
The Error #2032 your getting is due to the Flash player security.
To remove this this error you need one crossdomain Xml file in the root directory which actually provides a lot more control over who has access to your data from a SWF. The cross domain policy is attached as crossdomain.xml.
In the XML file, it is used a wildcard (*). This allows a SWF located on any machine to access your data source. You can certainly use an IP address or domain name to restrict access rather to opening it up completely. I always start with the wildcard to make sure my dashboard works, then start restricting access as necessary.
Here is a whitepaper with everything you need to know about Flash player security:

Please let me know if you need any more clarification.

Mime Type for document class when archiving outlook emails

Hello team,
can anybody fill me in how to configue the mime type for .msg files (outlook emails) in the document class msg?

1) Use SE16 to change table V_TOADD
2) Add:
Document Class - MSG
Description - Outlook Mail
MIME type of a Web object - message/rfc822
You can then associate the MSG document class to document types.

How To Get FileType and MIME Type from a File

Hi,
I am using following ways to get FileType and MIME Type.
I am able to get file type, but I am getting MIME Type as */*
Can any one please let me know how to get MIME Type, but it should not be time consuming process.
For File Type I am using following Code:
private String getFileData(InputStream inStream) {
fileName = C:\temp\temp.tiff
String filePath = Util.createTempFile(fileName);
RandomAccessFile raf = new RandomAccessFile(filePath, "rw");
while (inStream.available() > 0) {
     byte[] buf = new byte[inStream.available()];
     inStream.read(buf);
     raf.write(buf);
inStream.close();
raf.close();
File file = new File(filePath);
JFileChooser chooser = new JFileChooser();
String fileType = chooser.getTypeDescription(file);
file.delete();
//MIME Type I am getting from
DataHandler data = new DataHandler(new DocumentSource(inStream));
data.getContentType();
data.getContentType() is not working well in all cases.
Can any one help me on this.
Thanks in advance,
Ram.

Image size and mime type.. non-java guy needs help

Image size, mime type.. non-java guy needs help
Im not at all familiar with java so this is really weird for me to work out. I?ve been doing it all day (and half of yesterday).
Im trying to write a custom clodFusion tag in java that gets the width, height, size and MIME types of a given file. I?ve been trying to get it to work on the command line first. I can get the width and height but cant get the size and the MIME type.
Here is what I got
/*import com.allaire.cfx.*;*/
import java.awt.image.renderable.*;
import javax.media.jai.*;
import com.sun.media.jai.codec.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class ImageInfo {
private RenderedOp image = null;
private RenderedOp result = null;
private int height = 0;
private int width = 0;
private String type = "";
private String size = "";
public void loadf(String file) throws IOException
file = "80by80.jpg";
FileSeekableStream fss = new FileSeekableStream(file);
image = JAI.create("stream", fss);
height = image.getHeight();
width = image.getWidth();
System.out.println(height + "\n");
System.out.println(width);
System.out.println(type);
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
ImageInfo test = new ImageInfo();
test.loadf(args[0]);
can anyone please help me out to modify the above so I can also print the mime type and the file size to screen.
thanks for any help

any suggestions?

File Download and Mime-Types

I have some files (txt, xls, rtf, pdf) that need to be downloaded from our site. I
have an http link to the files on the web page. I've set mime-types for each file
type in web.xml for that web app. I'm using WLS 6sp2 on Windows 2K. I'm using an
MVC model for the application with a Controller servlet. Every time anyone tries
to click on the link and download it, the Contorller kicks them to a default page.
Can anyone help?
Thank you.

Go to IIS Management console. At the server level, go to MIME Types. Add a new MIME type:
File name extension:
.mp4
MIME type:
video/mp4
Restart IIS (can't remember if this is required).

(261705413) Q RPCC-21 Missing text/xml MIME-type for WSDL files?

Q<RPCC-21> Would it mess up the SOAP operations that clients do when using the
WSDL in a dynamic client to put a text/xml mime type in the WSDL-providing jsp?
A<RPCC-21>: It is a known issue that the MIME-type for WSDL files is not appropriately
transmitted so some web browsers will not identify an appropriate helper application
when they are viewed (for Netscape just press Ctrl-U to view the source). This,
however, does not affect the dynamic client as evidenced by the example code seen
in the code demonstration.
Adam

SR,
You probably already have the answer by now, but I just came across the same problem and found the answer elsewhere.
The trick is to have the JavaMail jar in your classpath BEFORE the JAF jar. Given the habit of my development environment to sort jars alphabetifally it had me stumped for a bit.
Good luck

Powerpoint uploads and MIME types

I am building an application to upload PPT files. I want to
test the
incoming filenames to see if it *is* a PPT file, but cannot
find a MIME type
for it. How should I do this so that I only allow such files
to be
uploaded?

OK - here's the skinny:
PPT extension files have a MIME type (PC or Mac) as stated.
PPTX extension
files (PC or Mac) have a MIME type as shown in the line in my
code below -
if (($_FILES['uploadfile']['type'] ==
'application/vnd.ms-powerpoint') ||
($_FILES['uploadfile']['type'] ==
'application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.presentation'))
This test appears to work as desired. Why would I not want to
use it to
filter all but Powerpoint files?

Trying to embed a video file in HTML5: ERROR=No video with supported format and MIME type found?

Hello all!
I am desparate for a solution. I am testing my site on Firefox and Explorer and still no sign of a functional video yet.
Firefox: I get the error: No video with supported format and MIME type found.
Explorer: I just get a distorted layout.
Here is the code I am working on:
<table id="Table_01" width="480" height="801" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
 <tr>
 <td colspan="6">
 <img src="images/Video_01.jpg" width="480" height="114" alt=""></td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td rowspan="3">
 <img src="images/Video_02.jpg" width="52" height="486" alt=""></td>
 <td colspan="4">
 <video controls width="376" height="221">
 <source src="C:\Users\aalmeida\Videos\AEMC PEL 103 6 Channel, Power & Energy Logger - with Display (Part 1).mp4" type="Video/Mp4"/>
 <source src="C:\Users\aalmeida\Videos\AEMC PEL 103 6 Channel, Power & Energy Logger - with Display (Part 1).webm" type="Video/WebM"/>
 <source src="C:\Users\aalmeida\Videos\AEMC PEL 103 6 Channel, Power & Energy Logger - with Display (Part 1).oggtheora.ogv" type="Video/Ogg"/>
 </video>
Please tell me that there is something missing in the code. I have spent a lot of time uninstalling-updating Firefox plugins, added MIME types in the Internet Information Manager (I'm on Windows 7)
and seriuously hit a dead end with this!
Any advice would be muchly appreciated!!!
Thanks
~LA

As Jon said, you must declare the page as HTML5.
And your server may not be set up to deliver video as a binary file if it is an .OGG file. I have not seen this problem with .MP4 or .M4V in the past, but every server is a little different.
To add a MIME type, you need to change your .htaccess file on an Apache server thusly:
AddType audio/ogg .oga
AddType video/ogg .ogv
AddType application/ogg .ogg
AddHandler application-ogg .ogg .ogv .oga
Additionally, MIME types can usually be changed on a server's Control Panel. One can also ask one's hosting provider to do this as well.
Firefox makes it necessary to use OGG files. Webkit-based browsers will deal with .M4V or .MP4 and I understand Internet Exploder will work with the latter two as well.

What is the correct MIME type for an AD RMS protected PFILE?

Hi,
The context of why this question is asked is as follows: In an SAP Webdynpro application (the UI is displayed in a web browser). We intercept the file with SAP data that is being downloaded, encrypt it using AD RMS and then send the modified (encrypted)
file back to be downloaded by the browser into the user's downloads folder.
Because of this interception and modification of the text file being downloaded (.txt), which is now a .PTXT file (PFILE) there is a conflict in the MIME TYPE.
So could you let me know what the MIME type for a PFILE would be? Is there a standard MIME Type for all these PFILES? (.ptxt, .pfile etc..)? And is it by any chance "application/octet-stream"?

Hi,
I also noticed this - it seems that Microsoft's 4 char extensions like .docx are not being recognized by application type so that either the web server or mod-plsql is defaulting to the "application/octet-stream" mime type which refers to a file with binary content - instead of the traditional "application/msword" mime type you would expect.
If you know, at the point of insert into your database table, both the mime type and file name, one workaround would be to check if the mime type is 'application/octet-stream' and the file's extension is ".docx" or other likely extensions and then treat it as mime type 'application/msword", etc.
Not really a solution but might be sufficient workaround depending on your situation.

The MIME type for xslx file is different in Mozilla 13.0.1

The MIME type for a xslx file is coming as "application/vnd.ms-excel.12" in Mozilla 13.0.1 instead of the "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet" which comes in other browsers when using fileUpload.PostedFile.ContentType

Firefox usually gets the MIME type from the MIME database registry key.
* HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.xslx
* HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Content Type

Item category (Customized )ZJT1 and MRP type for material is not allowed

Hi Guys,
When i try to create the order i see the error as item category and MRP type of the material is not allowed.
I checked in Vov5 table, i could observe that Schedule line category is maintained.
Could you please help us in resolving this..
Thanks and regards,
Rahul

Hi,
Please assign the Item Category ZJTI and MRP type (for eg: PD) assigned to the schedule line category in IMG under Sales and Distribution--> Sales ---> Schedule line -->Assign schedule line
Hope this resolve your issue

Item Category and MRP type for material is not allowed

Hello all,
I got a Error Message:
Transaction Z113 is not defined (Message no. V1347)
Diagnosis
This combination of item category Z113 and MRP type for material is not allowed.
System response
The system does not allow further processing of this item.
Procedure
Check your entry.
You can display the combination defined in table TVEPZ, which controls scheduling line category determination, and change it as required if you have the authorization to do so. The MRP type for the material may be changed in the material master.
The SD Configuration seems all right, I have:
Sls Doc Type (VOV8) ZA9 (no delivery type assigned)
Item Category (VOV7) Z113
Assigs Sls Doc & Item Ctgry (VOV4) ZA9/ZNOR/blank/blanl/Z113
ZNOR = Std Item-Av. chck Del
ZNOR defined in MM03/Sls Org 2
Define Schedule Line (VOV6) = Z7 (without delivery)
Z7 has FLAG on Prod Allocation
Assign Schedule Line (VOV5) = Z113/ND/Z7
At table: TVEPZ
I have the entry: Z113/ND/Z7
Guys, what would?
Please help me out because I am stuck in this issue.
Thanks a lot,
Barbara

Barbara, this may be tied to Strategy Group on the Material Master (I can't read enough into the detail)
Item Category determination + MRP Type for your schedule line type ties to a Sched. Line category(this you know)
New Rqmts class gets tied to a Rqmts Type
New Rqmts Type gets assigned to rqmts class
Strategy, assign the Rqmts Type to it
Strategy Group, Assign the Strategy to it
MM02 [MRP3 view] strategy group should be the one that ties together (all the other ties
It may be something in this area that you need to trace through ?
