  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FPUIFB095 - The MIME type must start with "image/" ?

    The SAP error message FPUIFB095 indicates that there is an issue with the MIME type of a file being uploaded or processed in the SAP system. Specifically, the error states that the MIME type must start with "image/", which means that the system is expecting an image file (such as JPEG, PNG, GIF, etc.) but is receiving a file with an incorrect or unsupported MIME type.

    Cause:

    1. Incorrect File Type: The file being uploaded is not an image file, or it has an incorrect file extension.
    2. MIME Type Misconfiguration: The system may not be correctly identifying the MIME type of the file due to misconfiguration or issues with the file itself.
    3. Browser or Client Issues: Sometimes, the browser or client application may not correctly set the MIME type when uploading files.

    Solution:

    1. Check File Type: Ensure that the file you are trying to upload is indeed an image file and has a valid image extension (e.g., .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .gif).
    2. Verify MIME Type: If you have access to the server or application logs, check the MIME type being sent with the file upload. It should start with "image/". If it does not, you may need to adjust the file or the way it is being uploaded.
    3. Rename File: If the file has the correct content but an incorrect extension, try renaming the file to have the appropriate image extension.
    4. Browser Settings: If you are using a web browser to upload the file, try clearing the cache or using a different browser to see if the issue persists.
    5. SAP Configuration: If you have administrative access, check the SAP system configuration for MIME types to ensure that image types are correctly defined and supported.
    6. File Size and Format: Ensure that the file size and format comply with any restrictions set by the SAP application.
