Error: Invalid file type. Supported file types are .csv and .txt.

  • 1.  Error: Invalid file type. Supported file types are .csv and .txt.

    Posted Fri July 22, 2022 09:07 AM
    Hello!. Starting from last week when I try to upload data into my DB2 tables I get an error message:
    'Invalid file type. Supported file types are .csv and .txt.' however it's a csv file generated automatically the same way as accepted before. Plus the error only occurs if Mozilla is the web browser. If web browser is Microsoft Edge for instance I access IBM Cloud and do the same action using exactly the same csv file  and the upload occurs with no error. What can be happening?

    Posting to share that only by modifying the  file extension from csv to txt resolves the problem.
