Error: Undefined Fn mime_content_type()

[vishalkrv]

Hi,

I was successfully able to setup Koel on my server(centos-release-6-7.el6.centos.12.3.x86_64) however it fails to play a song and gives me error in my console as Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error) with a link. When I open the link in a different page, I get this error FatalErrorException in SongController.php line 23:
Call to undefined function App\Http\Controllers\API\mime_content_type() . Similar error was found in laravel.log file as well. The file which I'm trying to play is a mp3.

Hey, thanks for contributing to Koel! To save time for both of us, please make sure these checkboxes are checked before submitting the issue:

• You have read and followed closely the Wiki, Upgrade Guide, as well as Troubleshooting
• The issue has not been reported before
• This is not a "how to install on Windows" or "why is my npm messed up" question
• You're a cool person

All checked? Now also make your issue

• Is associated with a version. Or better yet, a commit.
• Is as detailed as possible (ahem... OS, browser, steps to reproduce, maybe?)
• Includes the error output if it's a bug/error report ("Whoops!" is not very helpful, you know)
• Is in English, 因为我不说中文。

mime_content_type() has been deprecated. I'll remove this in the next version of Koel. Meanwhile you can enable mime_magic in your php.ini file for the functionality.

Oh, actually the function is not deprecated anymore, and is still well supported by PHP 7. I'll suggest you to look at your PHP installation then.

If this is still a concern I'd take a look if you have the php fileinfo shared extension installed (the mime_content_type function lives there).

Still in talks my hosting provider, mime_content_type and fileinfo both are disabled on my server.
