PmWiki works fine with .xls files, so it must be something in the
webserver configuration.

In your local/config.php file, try setting 

    $EnableDirectDownload = 0;


If the .xls files work after that, it's an indication that your
webserver isn't configured to provide the appropriate Content-type
header for .xls files (and we'd need to know what software your
web server is running to help further).

If the .xls files still don't work, then is there perhaps a url
we could look at?  What browser are you using?

Hope this helps,
