    Uploading PDF on media shows validation error

    Hi,

    I am using Umbraco v7.5.3 and I have this setting i my configSettings:

    <disallowedUploadFiles>ashx,aspx,ascx,config,cshtml,vbhtml,asmx,air,axd,swf,xml,html,htm,svg,php,htaccess</disallowedUploadFiles>

    Ok so it is so clear that no "pdf" is on disallowed list, which means I am able to upload pdf on media section.

    But upon uploading I always received this validation error.

    enter image description here

    Bu the pdf was successfully uploaded and saved to /media/xxxx/xxx.pdf, the only problem here is the validation saying "The specified file type has been disallowed by the administrator" but its not.

    This is a problem because it can confuse our editors. Any idea?

    I just came across the same issue while user uploading a .pdf file

    have you found any solution to this? Umbraco version 7.5.4

    The umbraco.config section does not have any mention of pdf;

    <disallowedUploadFiles>ashx,aspx,ascx,config,cshtml,vbhtml,asmx,air,axd,swf,xml,html,htm,svg,php,htaccess</disallowedUploadFiles>

    If you have a comma in the filename, removing and trying again seems to work.

    Not sure if its a bug, hopefully someone can shed some light on this. For clarification it was on Upload field.
