Please post the complete error message that you get, the browser and its version, and operating system. This works fine in my environment, so there's something different for you.

The file you selected is not a valid '.apk' file(found data:)

when trying to attach an APK file Ubuntu 10.04 Chrome 15.0.874.121

i tried again and i got:

The image you attempted to upload was 1334485 bytes, which is larger than the limit of 1048576 bytes.

i think this is related to cpuwhiz's image checks?

Are you trying to upload an icon or screen shot that's greater than 1MB? The current limit for images is 1MB, which should be very adequately large for any size we're going to display.

Absolutely. It's doing exactly what it's supposed to.

I reproduced the problem. Chrome does not recognize the APK file type. Firefox does. (Which seems really strange to me, since Google produces both APK-based Android and Chrome.)

We can therefore not do the client-side verification on Chrome. I've modified the code so if no MIME type for the requested file can be read, and an APK is being specified, to issue a warning (for now; can be removed later), but allow the upload anyway.

It should work for you now.

I believe the primary problem is fixed (Chrome doesn't recognize APK files, so no longer prohibited from uploading).

I highly suspect that on this particular retry, where it says, "The image...", you accidentally clicked on one of the Image buttons, rather than on the Apk button. I don't see any way this message could appear if the Apk upload button were pressed. If you can reproduce this reliably, though, please let me know.

OK, when I attach the APK I get "Browser does not recognize file type. Uploading anyway."

Then it works.

Can you remove this now? Either that or add somethlng like "switch to Firefox you luser"

:)

fixed in alpha003
