Setting server MIME types for common file formats

Troubleshooting


Problem

Artifacts and attachments open with the wrong program or save with the incorrect file extension. For example, a Microsoft Word document opens in the browser as unreadable text and is saved to disk as a .html file instead of a .doc file, an Excel file has a .zip extension, or a .jar file is downloaded and saved as a .zip file.
