Hi,

We need to upload zip files created by the Archive utility on Mac OSX, into the DNN File Manager. The upload fails due to the presense of the AppleDouble-encoded resource forks which are included automatically by the Finder.

Error: The .DS_Store file is a restricted file type.

Presumably a work around would be to use a command line zip utility to create an archive of the images we want to upload, and upload this, but this is inconvienent and our client won't go for this.

Alternatively, is there a way of allowing .DS_Store files?

Has anyone else encountered this problem?

thanks,

Jenni

You could allow it as a allowed file type under host settings.  However if it is not a .zip file I do not believe the DNN will be able to unzip it on upload.
