Uploaded PDF documents are renamed to .bin

[GoogleCodeExporter]

It seems that zotonic does not recognize pdf files properly. 
As a result they are renamed to .bin during the upload

This seems to be the same as issue #5. Do you have this problem in a recent 
version
of Zotonic?

Positive, I am running the code from the hg trunk when reproducing this bug

I cannot reproduce this here.

Do you have imagemagick installed, and are its tools (identify, convert, ...) 
in the
path? (if you upload an image and see a thumbnail afterwards, then it is 
correctly
installed).

Does it happen with every PDF file?

Yes, with every pdf files (tried about 4 at this point)
I can upload pictures and the mime type gets recognized properly

I have the tools in my path:

which identify
/opt/local/bin/identify
which convert
/opt/local/bin/convert

echo $PATH
/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr
/X11/bin:/Library/Application
Support/VMware Fusion

and the system is able to identify the pdf files properly:

file seobook53.pdf 
seobook53.pdf: PDF document, version 1.4

file OReilly\ -\ Programming\ Collective\ Intelligence.pdf 
OReilly - Programming Collective Intelligence.pdf: PDF document, version 1.6

But they still get renamed to .bin once uploaded

Do you also see the thumbnails for images? If so, we can rule out imagemagick 
issue
for sure.

Can you attach a file you tried?

What OS are you using?

Yes, i can see the thumbnails perfectly

Using Mac OS X 10.6.2 issue reproducible with Firefox 3.5.7 and Google Chrome

Can you check what mime type is assigned to your pdf files?  You should be able 
to see it in the admin.

What is the working directory from which you run zotonic? Does it contain 
spaces?

can you check the output of "file -b --mime-type foo.pdf" in the terminal?

no spaces:
pwd
/Users/raph/Desktop/sandbox/zotonic

mime type looks fine:

file -b --mime-type 10.1.1.11.6448.pdf 
application/pdf

Is this still relevant, e.g. still having the same problems? We have not been 
able to
reproduce this problem...

I'm wondering what to do with this ticket.

Closing until issue pops up again and we find a way to reproduce it.
