500: Internal Server Error when Uploading .mp3 File

#31

What I did: Clicked "Upload File." Browsed to and selected local .mp3 file.

What I expected to happen: .mp3 to appear in my shake perhaps in cool built-in player. :) Or, at least have the filetype rejected.

What actually happened: 500: Internal Server Error

    Yep, will add accepted file types. Mp3s are pretty much not going to happen, though embedding with oEmbed will.

    TIFFs cause this same error.

    Should we support TIFF files? Is that something that's popular enough that people use it?

    But the fix for this will absolutely be a file type list.

    Eh, TIFFs can be the default for screen capture stuff like Grab. I like that I can upload them to Flickr but I don't feel super strongly about it. Is it tough to implement? How do you feel about the "save this and rename it as MP3" kludge?

    Frightening. Super frightening. The song itself sounds like a self-recording, but I definitely don't like the idea of that working.

    I'll see if I can accept TIFFs.

    Oh, I just opened a tiff case. ouldn't easily figure out how to search the db... Yes tiff! At the least it would be nice if the error told me that which filetypes were acceptable.

    We have some error pages mocked up that do this. Will likely be live before end of next week.

    Error messaging in place. Tiff support tracked separately.
