unable to guess the mime type as no guessers are available

I am trying to upload files to my public folder but I keep on getting 500 server error. I have checked on my Cpanel log file and I get this error "unable to guess the mime type as no guessers are available". I am running my hosting on VPS. I have tried several solutions online including enabling mime types on, my php.ini extension=php_fileinfo.so

Have you looked in phpinfo() to see if the file info extension is actually enabled?
