This seems to be caused by the fact the file name is missing a file extension. Please find a nicer why to error on that or use a method to determine file types.

Correctly report an error for file names without extension

UploadWizard will reject files that have filenames without extension. It might be possible to accept them (we could try detecting the MIME type, or asking the user what type this is), but that would be very difficult with current codebase, and I think that not accepting them is intentional. Error handling for this case was broken, though.
