Re: Mime type not set for welcome files

It seems that the welcome-file-list is ignoring the mime-mapping set in the configuration. Is this as designed, a configuration issue or a bug?

RE: Mime-Type
Mime Type Overview Mime types tell browsers how to handle specific extensions. Most Mime types are set globally on the server. For example, the text/html Mime type equates to htm, html, and shtml extensions on most servers, and this tells your browser to interpret all files with those extensions as HTML files. You can alter or add new Mime types specifically for your site (note that you can not alter the global Mime type values, only add to them). Mime types are often used to handle new technologies as they appear. When WAP technology first appeared no-one had these extensions set up on their server. With Mime types, however, you could have set it up yourself and begun serving WAP pages immediately. Warning: Make sure you check the list of pre-existing Mime types before adding new ones. Check with your hosting administrator before adding a Mime type, as they can easily alter the correct functioning of your web site. Note: People often get confused as to the difference between Mime types and Apache handlers. Basically, Mime types tell your browser how to handle files, while Apache handlers tell the server how to handle files. JkMount /*.jsp ajp13 is an Apache handler not a MIME type. Isn't it.

RE: Mime-Type
Howdy, JkMount /*.jsp ajp13 is an Apache handler not a MIME type. Isn't it. Yup, exactly. It's an Apache handler for the *.jsp file extension. It instructs apache to pass files ending ending .jsp anywhere under the server root directory (hence the /*.jsp as opposed to /someDir/*.jsp) to the Jk connector using the ajp13 protocol. It doesn't say anything about client-side mime types, as Apache itself has no way of knowing what mime type the JSP page will produce. As Mr. Jackson said, it can be dangerous to rely on specific mime-type conventions, as users and system administrators can change those at will. It's kind of like relying on the fact your user's browser will have an address bar. You can do it, and it'll work under controlled circumstances (which may be good enough for your project), but it's unsafe in general.

RE: Mime-Type
petPeeveAlert I'm not going to argue with you, but a file without an extension will still have a mime-type. And a file extension doesn't 100% guarantee that the particular file is what you expect. File extensions are a convenience, nothing more. It's only because some companies (Microsoft) blindly expect the mime-type to be determined by the file extension that we're having this discussion. And this short sitedness is not limited to just Microsoft, but I blame them it popping up in other people's code. Tomcat's own mime-type determination code, ServletContext.getMimetype(), is based on the same short sightedness, at least with version 4.1.12. /petPeeveAlert And yes, JkMount /*.jsp ajp13 is not a mime-type, its a mod_jk setup directive. --mikej -=- mike jackson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: Hostmaster of the day [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 03, 2003 9:42 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Mime-Type Mime Type Overview Mime types tell browsers how to handle specific extensions.

Re: mime-type setting
Check out the Tomcat 4.x.x conf/web.xml. You can use that format and that ordering and apply it to your own app's web.xml. I don't think that Tomcat 3.3.x uses a conf/web.xml. Also, take a look at the dtd by downloading it. It specifies the tag order. Use the URI in your dtd declaration of your web.xml file and load that in any browser to download it.
