File extension truncated

Hi.

I am trying to share some files via the Files module. The files get uploaded just fine, but when I download them, only the first 4 characters of the file extension are left as part of the initial filename.

So if I upload a file via Files names "bananas.webtile" the downloaded file is renamed to "bananas.webt".

Is there a way to configure the Files module to not truncate the filename extension? I don't see anything relevant in the File Module settings.

Thanks.

So nobody? Truncating extensions is expected behavior? If so I'll have to drop Dolphin and find something else.

The entry for the extension in the database is only allowing 4 chars.

Try changing it by running the following SQL in phpMyAdmin.

ALTER TABLE `bx_files_main` CHANGE `Ext` `Ext` VARCHAR( 16 ) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci NULL DEFAULT NULL ;

That will increase the allowed extension length in the database to 16

Once that is increased, clear the dolphin cache and try again.

Thanks a lot. That worked like a champ.
