[pmwiki-devel] $EnableUploadMimematch and "Call to undefined function mime_content_type()"

[Petko Yotov]

Apparently on Windows you need to enable the Fileinfo functions in 
php.ini, see:

   https://www.php.net/manual/en/fileinfo.installation.php

I have now documented this on the UploadVariables page.

What should PmWiki do if $EnableUploadMimeMatch is enabled but not 
Fileinfo?

- Act as if $EnableUploadMimeMatch is not enabled. This would work as it 
did before, other checks will be done.

- Deny all uploads, since none can be checked.

What do you think?
