I was trying in vain to upload updated versions of the Override Engine to the Opencart extensions, and keep getting a 'Incorrect file type!' error. Can someone please fix this?

I ended up using rar. I am not sure why zip doesn't work when others are able to use it. I was using Chrome, I don't know if that has anything to do with it.

I've tried to upload a zip file in Chrome and Firefox with the same incorrect file type error.

Adding my vote 'to please fix it'.

I am pretty sure I did, but I can't remember if tried compatibility mode. I am on IE10.

Thanks MarketInSG - Internet Explorer did the trick.

To recap: ZIP files only seem to upload in IE

Did not test RAR, sorry.

I don't have any issues with any of the browsers. Try testing on a separate system and maybe we can find something out.

I confirm the same error - I get "file type error" when trying to upload ZIP extension in Firefox (v.24) on Windows 7.
In IE 10 the same file uploads without problems

Chrome will work too. Not sure why it only happens to Firefox.

Same problem for me with rar zip (7z never worked also before).
The header of the binary files and the file extensions are correct.
I've also tried to send the file with different mime types (tamper data) but I received the same error.
Could it be a check on the mime-type?

I had this issue fixed with an older version of Firefox (v.27) but when I updated to the 30 I cannot get it to work again. It is like firefox put a mask on the zip files.

Sadly, I have to use IE to upload files :/

Can you please post it as an issue on github, with an example on how to reproduce it. Or post it on the atlassian bugtracker.

Related to this...

Since the new ocmod system allows end users to upload extension.ocmod.xml files, shouldn't the extension store allow developers to upload theirextension.ocmod.xml, without having to put that in a zip file? ( And of course, making sure that it's downloaded as a file when the user downloads, versus displaying the xml in the browser)

That would allow for a very straightforward download from the store, and then upload/install for the end user, without the end user of the module having to unzip anything.

Ello mate, i`ve fixed this error in my store by adding the MIME types on the configuration

check if u got application/x-rar-compressed, application/octet-stream and application/zip on your MIMEs ($this->System->configuration.... server tab)
