Environment

Cause

The IIS web site used by the xFlow interface does not have MIME types defined for the image files with extenstions .svg and .svgz image used by the xFlow interface.

Define the MIME types for the xFlow interface in the IIS web server using the following steps:

src="/servlet/servlet.FileDownload?file=0150c000004AKPPAA4" alt="Mime3.jpg" width="787" height="316">

 

3. If there is no MIME type for files with .svg or .svgz extensions, then add them:

 

 

<Please see attached file for image>

src="/servlet/servlet.FileDownload?file=0150c000004AKPQAA4" alt="Mime4.jpg" width="726" height="474">

 

 

Add the following MIME types:

File name extension: .svg 

MIME Type: image/svg+xml 

 

File name extension: .svgz 

MIME Type: image/svg+xml 

 

4. Now Restart IIS and check the xFlow interface to see that the images are loaded correctly into the browser.
