Mimetype of docx changes when content is added

Desktop editors

OS: Fedora 38
OnlyOffice: 7.4.0.163 flatpak and RPM Version

Reproduction:

  1. Start OnlyOffice
  2. Create Empty Document
  3. Save Empty Document
  4. Close OnlyOffice
  5. Open Terminal
  6. file Document1.docx
    Dokument1.docx: Microsoft Word 2007+
  7. file --mime-type Document1.docx
    Dokument1.docx: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document
  8. Open the previous Document with OnlyOffice
  9. Type in some Text (Hello World!)
  10. Save Document
    11 close OnlyOffice
  11. file Document1.docx
    Dokument1.docx: Zip archive data, at least v2.0 to extract, compression method=store
  12. file --mime-type Document1.docx
    Dokument1.docx: application/zip

Why does OnlyOffice change the mimetype of the document to something wrong when you start adding content to the document? Which Mimetype is the correct mimetype for docx?

This also happens on the OnlyOffice DocumentServer Docker Image.

@Nikolas do you have any news on this? I am having the same problem after saving documents that have been edited in onlyoffice. Specifically, I’m downloading the file using the url provided to the callback handler. Callback handler

Hi @jxm

Please accept our apologies for the length of the situation.
I will update this thread when we have any additional information.

Unfortunately, I can’t provide a precise timeline for when the fix will be implemented.
