php - Unable to import xlsx file in Codeigniter

Question

after all the configuration if I am trying to import csv or xls file I am easily being able to do that but, the moment I am trying to import xlsx file gettig an error 'The filetype you are attempting to upload is not allowed'. In the file mimes.php

'xlsx'  =>  array('application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet', 'application/zip'),

getting error as 'The filetype you are attempting to upload is not allowed'. Any suggestion will be appreciated thnx.

Answer 1

Please try with following

On upload function use

$config['allowed_types'] = '*'; //All Files

If it is working then Please check with $_FILES for what mime type your browser read for .xlsx file

Your can also check with another excel import (If all above solution is not working) http://phpexcel.codeplex.com/
