... uploading file does not set content_type ... My problem is, the content type is not set, it stays empty I would like it to recognize, say application/msword or pdf or rtf or excel files for example

I don't understand, because when I upload a file directly through ZMI the content type is correctly set.

I do not know why it does not work automatically. However, the "ZMI" uses the "id" as an additional source to guess the content type. Check the source in "OFS/Image.py", to learn how it works (and why it does not in your case). If you know the content type, you can pass it directly to "addFile". Dieter
