Mimetype extensions has been removed from PHP 5.3.0
in favor of Fileinfo.
You must compile PHP with the configure switch
–with-mime-magic to get
support for mime-type functions. The extension needs a copy of the
simplified magic file that is
distributed with the Apache httpd.

This extension is not capable of handling the fully

the above example. e.g. c:\php
