These two PHP functions - mime_content_type and finfo_open - are throwing out a fatal error in one of my scripts. Are they installed/enabled on shared host? I understand mime_content is deprecated so changed over to finfo_open. Still a no-go.
Fatal error: Call to undefined function mime_content_type() in /home/xxx/public_html/xxx/classes/attachment.php on line 172.
Thanks in advance

The functions appear to be from a "Fileinfo" extension to PHP and not the core libraries, so I guess they're not installed. You could try asking for them to be added to your server, but you may get a recommendation to try another method (if one exists).
The more information you provide, the better answer the community can give.

Thanks for the info. I was not sure if the functions were not installed, disabled, or just needed a special call/include for ASO shared servers. I'll send in a ticket to verify and for any recommendations.

Yeah, the original mime_content_type() function was removed in recent versions of PHP in favor of the fileinfo PECL module. Open a ticket with support, they should be able to get it installed for you.
