CFFILE Uploading Mac Zip Files

I have a client who is getting errors when attempting to upload zip files from his Mac (No file). I realize the encoding is different and have been researching the issue without much success. In my attempt to solve the problem I have included every application/type for compressed files that I have been able to find.

The website is on a UNIX server running CF7.

If anyone has had this issue before, I would be interested in hearing your thoughts.

Thanks!

David

    Have you examined the form scope to see if there is any data there?

    <cfdump var="#form#"><cfabort>

    Have you examinied the http post headers to see if the data is there?

    There could be any number of systems that might be preventing this file data from making it from the client to the server.  I would start with trying to nail down whether the data is even comming into ColdFusion before I loose too much hair on why ColdFusion has a problem.

    I cannot help you with MAC/Unix issues. But can you post the error message so someone else can?

    The form field "file" did not contain a file.

    Since "File" is a reserved word I would first try using a different name for the form field.
