Hi,

I currently got the responsibility for a SS CMS v2.4.5. We had to move it from an old server to a new one and had everything copied 1:1 over. The new server is a plesk with IIS. Everything works fine except one thing.

We have the possibility for our users to login and upload files. Often these files are something like .095, .096, etc. Those are actually just textfiles but with different extensions. If we now try to download such a file we get file not found error. If I put the file in the root of my webserver, having added "file/download .094" in the MIME-Types section of my plesk, I can open it no problem.

Do I have to customize the handling for that file-extensions in SS separately? I know nothing about SS, hope you can help a newbie out. Thanks!

Kind regards,
Sebastian
