Can't install APK hosted my own apache server
- by Ogre_BGR
I've exported an apk from eclipse. I am able to install it without any problem if I copy it to the phone's sd card.
When trying to download via phone's (Galaxy S) browser I get:
"Download unsuccessful".
I have set mime type application/vnd.android.package-archive in the mime.types, restarted apache, still same result.
Also tried :
<a href="downloads/my_apk.apk" type="application/vnd.android.package-archive">Download App</a>
Still no luck.
I am able to download and install applications from android market. I suspect that apache is not sending the mime type but this is just a shot in the dark.
How can I fix the problem and be able to install APKs from my web server? (or at least to check if apache sends correct header with mime type)
Any help will be appreciated.
