      Description

      In Sakai 10 by default there is MIME type detection that is done on every content save of a resource.

      This means if you had a custom MIME type and update the resource properties the MIME type gets reset to what the detection thinks it should be.

      If you attempt to manually set a MIME type the MIME type detection overrides this value and you manual change is lost.

      To disable MIME type detection set: content.useMimeMagic=false in sakai.properties.
