Description:
97-2004 doc file

Hi,

We are unable to upload DOC and XLS files, created with Microsoft Office on an Apple Mac platform, when we choose 97-2004 format.

Here is the debug message:

MimeMagic::improveTypeFromExtension: improved mime type for .doc: application/msword
MediaHandler::getHandler: no handler found for application/msword.
File::getPropsFromPath: /tmp/phpPKgA0J loaded, 102400 bytes, application/msword.
UploadBase::detectScript: checking for embedded scripts and HTML stuff
UploadBase::detectScript: no scripts found
ZipDirectoryReader: Fatal error: trailing bytes after the end of the file comment

It worked with Mediawiki 1.17. It doesn't anymore since MW 1.18.

Such a document is attached to this bug report.

Version: 1.18.x
Severity: normal

That zip file is in a bad shape:

$ unzip Tes*
Archive: Test - 2007.doc
warning [Test - 2007.doc]: 6064 extra bytes at beginning or within zipfile

(attempting to process anyway)
inflating: [Content_Types].xml     
inflating: _rels/.rels             
inflating: theme/theme/themeManager.xml  
inflating: theme/theme/theme1.xml  
inflating: theme/theme/_rels/themeManager.xml.rels

From bug 24073, MS Word append a zip file after the doc. Might be a regression in 1.18

Yes, it's the same issue. Adding hartman to the bug as the solver of the previous one.
