Hi Rosanna,
That rings a bell with my previous problem. It worked with Firefox but
not with IE, but after I made that change IE was then able to properly
identify office 2007 filetypes.

Hi David,
I tried this with another browser such as Google Chrome and it worked
fine. Looks like the problem lies with Internet Explorer.

Sorry - forgot to mention that you will need to restart your apache
service after making these changes.

Hi Rosanna,
I've just checked another webserver I had this problem with, this is how
I got around it (bear in mind that prior to this I had absolutely no
apache experience, so apologies if this is the wrong way to approach
this). In my .htaccess file in my web root I've added the following:
AddType application/vnd.ms-word.document.macroEnabled.12 .docm
AddType
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document
docx
AddType
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.template
dotx
AddType application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.template.macroEnabled.12 potm
AddType
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.template
potx
AddType application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.addin.macroEnabled.12 ppam
AddType application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.slideshow.macroEnabled.12 ppsm
AddType
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.slideshow
ppsx
AddType application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.presentation.macroEnabled.12 pptm
AddType
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.presentatio
n pptx
AddType application/vnd.ms-excel.addin.macroEnabled.12 xlam
AddType application/vnd.ms-excel.sheet.binary.macroEnabled.12 xlsb
AddType application/vnd.ms-excel.sheet.macroEnabled.12 xlsm
AddType
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet xlsx
AddType application/vnd.ms-excel.template.macroEnabled.12 xltm
AddType
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.template
xltx
I think you can put this into a .conf file. (httpd.conf?)
Give that a shot, and let us know how you get on :)
Regards,
David

Hi David,
Thank you very much for your reply. I tried what it told me to do on
the website, but unfortunately it didn't work for me. The apache server
(apache2) is running on a linux server.

Hi,
The new office 2007 format differs a lot from previous versions (open
XML I think?)
Either way I had this problem with a website I was hosting off apache,
so this issue isn't specific to OTRS (afaik), but with apache itself.
Regards,
David

Can somebody tell me why office 2007 documents, i.e. word and
excel open as zip files when attached to an OTRS call.
