In the Firefox 8 beta there is a bug with attachments - they download as "index.php" instead of their original filename. The contents of the downloaded file are the original attachment file. The bug do not exist in other Firefox version or browsers.

P.S. Confirmed on SMF 2.0.1 with different themes, including the default. I cleaned the cache of my browser.

Hi there,
users that have recently updated to Firefox 8.0 get all zip-files downloaded as "index.php".
Can someone confirm this?

Always good not to be alone with a problem. :D
Do you think this will be solved in SMF or is this a bug in Firefox 8.0?

most likely i think it is an smf issue but may not be fixed until the next security patch is released which may be sometime, unless the devs feel otherwise. there is also possibility that it may not be fixed in the security patch up to the devs either way.

I looked at FF's MIME settings, to see if it could be changed.
But, Firefox, being the dog that it is, it seems that you can't, as far as I can see.

Since the release of Firefox 8 yesterday all attachments on SMF boards (including this one) download as "index.php". The file being downloaded is the actual attachment, just with a false name and file extension.
Downloads work fine on IE, Chrome, Opera. So this is likely a problem with FF8 not taking the intended mime type.
EDIT: I have successfully downloaded files from other sites (than SMF forums) with FF8, so the problem might lie in the way SMF serves up attachments.

Fix: In Display.php
EDIT: Updated to use the Opera header which works as well and doesn't produce errors
Code Select
// Different browsers like different standards...
if ($context['browser']['is_firefox'])
//header('Content-Disposition: ' . $disposition . '; filename*="UTF-8\'\'' . preg_replace('~&#(\d{3,8});~e', '$fixchar(\'$1\')', $utf8name) . '"');
header('Content-Disposition: ' . $disposition . '; filename="' . preg_replace('~&#(\d{3,8});~e', '$fixchar(\'$1\')', $utf8name) . '"');

Some of them, like the tab addons, should be standard.
I'll give that a go, Tom. Is it for all versions of SMF?

I didn't see those threads but I saw and tested the patch mentioned in the second link beforehand and it didn't work here.
Simply sending FF the default content header (as seen above) does work.

The forum software sends a broken header field, and *only* to Firefox because it attempts user-agent sniffing.
So please don't blame Firefox; if the software would have sent the same header to Chrome or Opera the result would be the same.
The issue has been known for over two months; see Mozilla Bug 685060 for the details.

Spaces require escaping as %20 in this format. Note that you can simply send the same format to Chrome, Opera, Firefox, Konqueror, and IE >= 9. No need to special case except for legacy browsers like IE <= 8 and Safari.

Ah OK. BTW your patch worked fine - thanks. However, because I didn't know what that file was, I merely copied/pasted your code in a text editor rather than using the Package Manager.

It works for files that don't contain spaces in the filename, but is still broken for files with a space in the name.
For instance My_File.txt works
My File.txt downloads as "My"

It's good if this fixes the current and urgent issue. But please, going forward, consider removing as much special-casing as possible, thus send the same header to all of Chrome/Opera/Konqueror/FF and IE>=9.

Replace:

But it said that before also. It's not something specific added by this code.
Find in Display.php:
Code Select
if ($context['browser']['is_firefox'])
header('Content-Disposition: ' . $disposition . '; filename*="UTF-8\'\'' . preg_replace('~&#(\d{3,8});~e', '$fixchar(\'$1\')', $utf8name) . '"');
elseif ($context['browser']['is_opera'])

elseif ($context['browser']['is_ie'])

Code Select

QuoteMy File.txt

But curios is: since one week (or 8 days) i have the same problem with my board, too: all the attachments are applications/octet-streams!!!
AND....my board is 2 RC5 (well with some mods from 2.0.1....)
i contact my hosting-company and ANY solution here must be nice.
Thank you in advance!

I have never learned SMF's newer package/mod process. This might be a good time to do so if that is best :-[

It would be nice if you could patch SMF through the package manager, something like with Linux distros (without bouncing files around) ... I am normally very swift to pick these things up, so there must be something very counter-intuitive, or atypical about SMF's ways.
EDITED: Oh and... which file am I uploading thru the package manager? The archive itself? Or one of the xml files (probably not the package-info.xml one) ?

Any chance an upgrade would overwrite changes made to the source code? When advised to make the changes (here) it would suggested updates would not likely clobber them.
PS: This may already have been said. But the top of this thread suggests this is an 8.0 "Beta" problem with FF. I'm assuming since the problem was found to be in the SMF code this could use correcting. Anyway whether FF should be more lenient or not. My version is 8.0 and not beta.

^Though so. I like SMF but this is problematic. Seems like once installed I can never upgrade. Maybe there is a version control with merger way?
Maybe those directories are not writable. Let's see if I can find them...
EDITED: Packages is writable. There is no "temp" sub directory in Packages. I'm not sure how offtopic this is. But apologies regardless.
Quote from: PS:Package upload failed due to the following error:
"Although the package was downloaded to the server it appears to be empty. Please check the Packages directory, and the "temp" sub-directory are both writable. If you continue to experience this problem you should try extracting the package on your PC and uploading the extracted files into a subdirectory in your Packages directory and try again. For example, if the package was called shout.tar.gz you should:
1) Download the package to your local PC and extract it into files.
2) Using an FTP client create a new directory in your "Packages" folder, in this example you may call it "shout".
3) Upload all the files from the extracted package to this directory.
4) Go back to the package manager browse page and the package will be automatically found by SMF."

we will not do that for RC releases, which has been said many times. but we do have a package manager upgrade for stable releases.

Oh, I was chastised into installing RC4 because I was told previous stuff was not recommended. I wonder if I could go backwards with the install then.
Oh it looks like 2.0.1 is the only option. Is 2.0 considered stable now then? I may just do a re-install if so.

2.0 was considered the stable release over the summer when it came out, i would never want to run an older version as it will have security issues.

Yes, SMF2.0.1 is the most recent stable version released. You can actually download any version of SMF from the downloads page by clicking on the archives link. But for all intensive purposes, you can't downgrade without restoring to old data.

and if there are database changes it may cause conflicts with the old files.

Sorry meant to say "can't" downgrade. Restoring to old data would mean wiping out any database changes.

Back in reply #62 of this thread I did a find/replace to fix an issue with Firefox that was happening with file attachments that had spaces in the name. This was causing the patch for SMF 2.07 to break three times on Display.php. I reversed the Find/Replace shown in my quote below, and then the 2.07 update was able to run without errors.

Find in Display.php:Code Selectif ($context['browser']['is_firefox'])
header('Content-Disposition: ' . $disposition . '; filename*="UTF-8\'\'' . preg_replace('~&#(\d{3,8});~e', '$fixchar(\'$1\')', $utf8name) . '"');
elseif ($context['browser']['is_opera'])
header('Content-Disposition: ' . $disposition . '; filename="' . preg_replace('~&#(\d{3,8});~e', '$fixchar(\'$1\')', $utf8name) . '"');
elseif ($context['browser']['is_ie'])
header('Content-Disposition: ' . $disposition . '; filename="' . urlencode(preg_replace('~&#(\d{3,8});~e', '$fixchar(\'$1\')', $utf8name)) . '"');
else
header('Content-Disposition: ' . $disposition . '; filename="' . $utf8name . '"');
Replace:Code Selectif ($context['browser']['is_ie8'] || $context['browser']['is_ie7'] || $context['browser']['is_ie6'])
header('Content-Disposition: ' . $disposition . '; filename="' . urlencode(preg_replace('~&#(\d{3,8});~e', '$fixchar(\'$1\')', $real_filename)) . '"');

Funny you should mention this, we had to deal with this too on here ;)

I had a feeling it was going to bite a few people. I'd have never had the guts to get past it without remembering (and finding) this old post with the find/replace itemized.

Yeah, it bit us while doing the upgrade. But if you'd shouted, we could have pointed you in the right direction ;)
