"Supported file types are GIF, JPG, PNG, SWF and WebM" when uploading WebM #25

Created by: Soleedus

WebM support is set to "true" in settings.php, and both mediainfo and ffmpegthumbnailer are installed/functional. TinyIB rejects WebM posts for some reason, and provides the above error message.

Could you please upload the WebM file you tested? This error is displayed when the MIME type was unmatched, meaning the file isn't being read as video/webm or audio/webm.

Any chance in the future to add the feature of clicking an image to enlarge
it, instead of it directing you to a direct image page?

@ferngarc Sure, I've meant to add such a feature for some time. I've committed the necessary changes.

I've tried a lot of WebMs, it's not file-specific.

Could you please paste the TINYIB_WEBM line from your settings.php?

Created by: Soleedus

define('TINYIB_WEBM', true);

It says WebM is an accepted filetype -- when I go to post with a WebM,
however, it rejects the post on the basis on an invalid filetype.

Below this line add echo $file_mime_output;, the output might give a clue.

Below [this line](https://github.com/tslocum/TinyIB/blob/eedef06bbfc965581e4891078272b9cf12c481cc/imgboard.php#L192) add `echo $file_mime_output;`, the output might give a clue.

Did that and, interestingly, nothing is echoed when attempting to upload a webm.

Change the line you added to echo 'file --mime-type ' . $file_location;die(); Then try running that command as the user which runs PHP (usually www-data in my experience) from the directory containing imgboard.php, it seems like your PHP user might not be able/allowed to reach the file binary.

Any luck @Soleedus?

Hey, here's the echo:
file --mime-type src/1475288262050.webm

The webm is being uploaded to the /src/ directory, but it doesn't appear in the board index, or anywhere else for that matter.

Try running that command as PHP's user from the directory containing imgboard.php, does it return a MIME type?

Yeah, there's definitely something up with my permissions. Not something wrong with your software.
