Today, we needed to have our IIS webserver serve up a dmg file for apple users to download. When we put it in the download directory and tried to download it, we were getting the message that the file could not be found. We knew it was there and checked over and over for a typo in the filename but it insisted that we were wrong. The problem was that IIS didn't have a mime type for dmg files. Here are instructions for how to add your dmg mime type in IIS.
1. Open the Internet Information Services (IIS ) Manager
2. Right click on the server and select properties
3. Click the MIME Types button
4. Click the New button
5. Enter dmg in the Extension field
6. Enter application/octet-stream in the MIME type field
7. Click OK
1. Open the Internet Information Services (IIS ) Manager
5. Enter dmg in the Extension field
This was very helpful today. Thanks!
