http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9252 Tomcat sometimes posts HTML Error Pages as text/plain instead of text/html. Summary: Tomcat sometimes posts HTML Error Pages as text/plain instead of text/html. Product: Tomcat 4 Version: 4.0.3 Final Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Catalina AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Apache Tomcat does not always identify error pages as text/html. http://site/application/bad-name.html -> text/html 404 error page http://wite/application/bad-name -> text/plain 404 error page http://wite/application/bad-name.xxx (or any suffix other than html or htm) -> text/plain 404 error page IE (unfortunately) accepts the pages as html anyway, but Netscape and other browsers do not. The user sees the html source instead of the formatted error page. A typical error page from Tomcat is: <html><head><title>Apache Tomcat/4.0.3 - Error report</title><STYLE><!--H1{font-family : sans-serif,Arial,Tahoma;color : white;background-color : #0086b2;} BODY{font-family : sans-serif,Arial,Tahoma;color : black;background-color : white;} B{color : white;background-color : #0086b2;} HR{color : #0086b2;} --></STYLE> </head><body><h1>Apache Tomcat/4.0.3 - HTTP Status 404 - /bad</h1><HR size="1" noshade><p><b>type</b> Status report</p><p><b>message</b> <u>/bad</u></p><p><b>description</b> <u>The requested resource (/bad) is not available.</u></p><HR size="1" noshade></body></html> which is fine, except that the mime type is identified as text/html. Non-Tomcat URIs have no problem - Apache correctly produces text/html error pages. It is only Tomcat-intercepted URIs that exhibit the problem. This is Apache 1.3.23, Tomcat 4.0.3. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
