Answer 1

Try

$cmd = 'file --brief --mime ' . @escapeshellarg($file['tmp_name']) . ' 2>&1';

Open Upload.php file from system/libraries folder and put @ in front of escapeshellarg($file['tmp_name']) at line 1066 and second thing upload this file under application/libraries folder that will be better, other wise no problem, you can replace system's Upload.php file.
