Tomcat 4 vs Tomcat 5 and MIME settings

[Stephen Thomas]

Hi,

I must apologise, I've never used these types of systems before and have
sent this email to a couple of addresses. 

I am a developer of Voice applications. I use the Tomcat servlet engine to
host my applications which are then fetched from the voice server. I am
currently having an issue with Tomcat 5 and 'content-type'. The voice server
can play .vox files and I fetch such a file from Tomcat 5 and get the
following header:

lwp-request -d -e http://10.100.1.113:8080/test/soxTest1.vox
Connection: close
Date: Mon, 01 Dec 2003 09:30:03 GMT
Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1
Content-Length: 8130
Content-Type: audio/x-vox;charset=ISO-8859-1
ETag: W/8130-1069965466970

Client-Date: Mon, 01 Dec 2003 09:29:38 GMT
Client-Peer: 10.100.1.113:8080

I have added the following lines to web.xml
mime-mapping
extensionvox/extension
mime-typeaudio/x-vox/mime-type
/mime-mapping

The file fails to play because of the charset being appended to the
'content-type'. When I host the application and .vox file on Tomcat 4 I can
play the file as the content-type is returned as only 'audio/x-vox'.

Please could you help me as I'd rather use Tomcat 5 but this issue is
currently stopping me.

Thanks in advance,

Steve

Does this mean it will still return a charset? I don't need any charset
returned.

I will continue using Tomcat 4.1.27 until the fixed release of 5 is stable.

Thanks,
Steve

Bill Barker has already fixed this:

org.apache.coyote.Response
revision 1.31
date: 2003/11/16 05:20:23;  author: billbarker;  state: Exp;  lines: +10 -3
Restore the ability to explicitly set the charset to iso-latin-1.

Download the latest Tomcat 5 source and try it.
