Hi folks,

One of my hosting customers has a site that uses shockwave
extensively, and he's having some problems getting it to work
correctly.  Any time he tries, it "spits out a bunch of text" (in his
words) instead of loading it in flash.  Basically it's trying to read
the file instead of running it.  The permissions on the file are
currently -rw-r--r-- and I tried as -rwxr-xr-x as well with the same
results.  It worked fine when his site was hosted at Pair Networks.

The box is running apache 1.2.5 with FrontPage extensions (installed
manually before the apache-fp port existed).. I dunno if it's apache
causing the problem or what.  I also know that it's not a corrupt file
because he emailed me the file and was able to play the attachment he
sent without incident.  It's a normal shockwave flash .swf file that
he's trying to get working.  Is there anything I need to add to
apache's conf files to get this working?

Thanks.

Jim
