Problems with office files

Post by Lunarman »

Hi

I am using phoca download 1.1.0 on Joomla 1.5.8 stable.
Instalation and all went without problems. Uploading files too. But when I download files from office (ppt, xls ...) i can't open them. I tried with many files (small, big, chancing settings) but nothing help. Don't have problems with jpg and pdf.

I can download it without problems but when I want to open them from my pc there is problem. In powerpoint:
PowerPoint can't read the outline from filename. No text converter is installed for this file type.

I use office 2007 and I tried to open file in ppt. Downloaded by phoca file dosen't work but when I download that file by ftp it work fine...

Hi, there should not be any difference, Phoca Download only gives the file to browser and tell it that browser should not open it only give it to download :idea:

I also notice that files downloaded by phoca are about 2-3kb smaller then original files on server...

Maybe some kind read only? Or information that that file shouldn't be opened is writted somewhere in that file?
