Resolved Can't download .bz2 file type from my server

[UnitedGamers]

Hey, i have uploaded a few .bz2 compressed files to my dedicated server and i am not able to download them. I was trying everythink what comes to my mind, but nothing works. All other types like .rar o .zip .xml .php i am able to dowdnload or open, the folder permssion and file permisions are granted, ( i was trying also with full permissions and all the time is the same). Any idea why? I have the latest version of plesk and windows server 2019.

Php 7.4.16 installed .bz2 compresion enabled

What kind а error message do you have when you try to download such a file?
Any errors in Web Server logs? Plesk for Windows services logs and configuration files

hello @UnitedGamers
If I understand you correctly you have uploaded some .bzip2 file with file manager to your subscription
and not able to download it via http(s) like http://mydomain.com/myfile.tar.bzip2

If yes, you need to open IIS settings for your domain and in MIME types control add string "application/octet-stream .bzip2"
like on screenshot below, and apply changes


after that bzip2 files will become downloadable via http(s).

If I understand you incorrectly, could you please provide more details about your problem: what exactly error you see and how you trying to download files ?

Hello,
If possible I would like to know how you tried to upload files?

Hello,

I guess it doesn't matter.
In general files may be uploaded in several ways:
- using Plesk File manager through GUI
- via ftp under subscription system user
- scp/sftp/rdp if have administrative access to the server
