           Summary: MIME type case insentive for Tomcat and allow byte
                    serving with HTTP response header
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: 5.5.27
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Hi,

On the dev-tomcat list I described in the topic "Byte Serving and PDFs with the
DefaultServlet" an issue that I had with Tomcat to serve PDFs.

Analysing the answers I could find that the matter was related to the case of
the file extension. Today Tomcat is case sensitive for MIME type extensions.

So the solution for me was enter two MIME specifications on the web.xml file.
One is for "pdf" and another one for "PDF".

This way I would like to ask for and request for enhancement to make Tomcat be
able to, due a setup on configuration file, consider or not case for MIME type
extensions.

About the HTTP response header, I would like to have "useAcceptRanges" Feature
as default for src.share.org.apache.catalina.servlets.DefaultServlet. It was
already added on Tomcat after 6.0.18.

Regards,

Vitor
