Hi,
I'm trying to use Eshop to sell some mp3 files - but when I try to add it as a download in Eshop I get the error 'invalid file mime type'.
How do I fix this error?

Hello Enoch,

The reason because you don't have the correct mime type of the files in the configuration of EShop. Please check to make sure that you know the file mime type of your files exactly. Then go to EShop -> System -> Configuration -> Option tab, look at Allowed File Mime Type to fill in there, then it should work.

Sincerely, Giang
