I've used shared host for hosting my application and the version is php5.3.27. I'm getting an error like

 Call to undefined function finfo_open()

So I've gone through some articles where I suggested by enabling fileinfo extension in .htaccess. For the first time I'm getting this error. Please help me to get the solution. The work would be more appreciated.

See this answer:

In your php.ini file, make sure you have something like this in it:

extension=fileinfo.so

or if you're on windows, php_fileinfo.dll.
