The .heic file format is not supported in profile image

Issue

• Issues while uploading a profile photo taken with an iPhone camera since the extension is .heic, which causes errors. Even if tried to upload via control panel options, the issue may persist with the same extension files.

  2) Update portal-ext.properties with this value

  mime.types.web.images=image/gif,image/jpeg,image/pjpeg,image/png,image/x-png,image/heic

  3) Navigate to 'Users and Organizations'
  4) Create one user and save it
  5) Edit this user by selecting the 'Change' option to set the user profile with a .heic image
