Accessing Uploaded Files Issue

Hi,

We've recently launched a site which uses a (horrible) plug-in to display proprietary file types in the browser. At first, only a single file type was supported, but as of a recent software update, that format has been deprecated. The plug-in supports both formats.

However, the client is storing these small files on the server. They arrive via a fairly standard CMSB 'upload' field in an editor. These files are stored in <domain>cmsAdmin/uploads/scortch/ .

The page that displays these files works well with the legacy .sco files. However, it balks when the new .sib format is uploaded to the default directory. If the .sib files are manually stored elsewhere, they work well.

For example:
/cmsAdmin/uploads/scortch/myfile.sco
works great.

/cmsAdmin/uploads/scortch/myfile.sib
fails to load in the plug-in (and crashed the plug-in)

/test/myfile.sib
works great.

I don't see anyting in the CMSB .htacces file that might trigger this behaviour. It's repeatable any number of ways.

Any ideas why that file type in that directory might fail to be served?

Thanks,
Jayme
