Summary0002194: Trying to download a CSV file gives an "Unacceptable Type" error
DescriptionI am running a HOMEMATIC house automation system. It records some room temperature for me. The HOMEMATIC will store this data inside a CSV file which can be downloaded by a Webbrowser. Usually this can be done from a web based GUI provided by the HOMEMATIC which required Javascript and therefore under RISC OS it is only accessable using FireFox which is terrible slow.
I found a workaround and setup a PDA web GUI. If logged in there you can copy a session id fprm the URL into another URL and will obtain the file usually. Worked fine with Netsurf until V3.0. But at later versions I am getting an unacceptable type.
Steps To ReproduceNot possible for you becasue you don't have access to private environment.

Requested file added.
I assume that the problem is in content-type tag which says that it is an application/octect-stream. May be this is not setup inside my MimeMap table.
In case that this is the problem it would be useful to show the unknown type and possibilities to correct it inside the error text.

Thanks. Please try with the next build.

You can turn curl debug output suppression back on now too.
