Resource interpreted as image but transferred with MIME type text/html - Magento

Question

I\'m getting below error when uploading a new product image for my Magento shop.

Resource interpreted as image but transferred with MIME type text/html
         


        

Answer 1

I had the same problem once, because of capitalization.

My Colleagues were working on a Mac and added some camel-cased files, but it showed up lowercased in CSS. This works fine on Mac, but I was working on Linux. Mac doesn't distinguish filenames having different cases but Linux does. Most servers out there run on Linux.

example:

epicimage.jpg !== EpicImage.jpg

Thanks to the Chrome Dev Tools, the problem could be found very easy. Simply clicking on the image url showed me our 404 page. Mystery solved :D
