File upload for Zip and rar extension not working in Codeigniter

I am creating file upload functionality for my blog using codeigniter. in that i am accepting two formats zip|rar.

It gives error as The filetype you are attempting to upload is not allowed.. Its working fine if change it to other format like image or txt .

Please find the code snippet

$config['upload_path'] = './public/';
        $config['allowed_types'] = 'zip';
        $config['max_size'] = '6000';       
        //$config['file_name'] = $authorName.$config['file_ext'];
        $config['overwrite'] = TRUE;

        $this->load->library('upload', $config);



        if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload()){         
            $data['serverMessage'] = "E75";
            $data['uploadError'] = $this->upload->display_errors();
            $data['message'] =$this->upload->display_errors();

        }else{
            $data['message'] ="Thanks you";
        }

        $this->output->set_header("HTTP/1.0 200 OK");
        $this->output->set_header("HTTP/1.1 200 OK");

        $this->output->set_header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate");
        $this->output->set_header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0");
        $this->output->set_header("Pragma: no-cache");




        $this->load->view('guestpost', $data);

Add 'application/octet-stream' at the end of zip at config/mimes.php ...

'zip'   =>  array('application/x-zip', 'application/zip', 'application/x-zip-compressed', 'application/s-compressed', 'multipart/x-zip', 'application/octet-stream')
