Forums / Developer / File attribute: .flv [SOLVED]

Hi again.
I created a new class "video-content" with an attribute file "video" where to upload .flv files.
Installed Flowplayer and created an override for the full view where I inserted the script to play to video. File succesfully uploaded and the player seems to work fine, but the problem is that when I load the page I get the message:
200, Stream not found, NetStream.play.StreamNotFound, clip: '[clip], '/var/ezwebin_site/storage/original/video/codeidentifieroftheuploadedvideo.flv''
Also if I try to open the video by entering its path in the address bar of the browser I get a Forbidden warning: "You do not have permission to access this document".
It seems to me I need to set the permission to the file but it is uploaded as file attribute and I don't know the way to do that, it's not in the media library.
Any idea why this might be happening and what do?
Thanks a lot!

Hello Lo' F,
Sounds like you have a web server configuration issue.
If you put the video url in a browser and can't access the file
and it's giving a web server error page chances are you have a web server configuration issue.

Thank you Heath. You are absolutely right.. that's the issue.
I added the .flv mime type to the server configuration setting (/etc/mime.types) this way..
flv-application/octet-stream video/x-flv flv
but the problem still lingers.
Also tried to add this line to .htaccess..
AddType video/x-flv .flv
but no result.
Of course, restarted the vps (..Linux server) after the changes..

I added the .flv extension in the .htaccess file as follows..
<FilesMatch "(^index\.php|favicon\.ico|index_treemenu\.php|\.(gif|jpe?g?|png|flv|css|js|swf|html?)|var(.+)storage.pdf(.+)\.pdf)$"> order allow,deny allow from all </FilesMatch> ... RewriteRule !(\.(gif|jpe?g?|png|flv|css|js|swf|html?)|var(.+)storage.pdf(.+)\.pdf)$ index.php
and now it works!
