Yeah, nagoya.apache.org seems down. Hopefully it will be back soon. The bug has good detail of what and how to fix.

Thanks Tim,

Having a little trouble getting anything from bugzilla, nagoya.apache.org
seems to be having a little trouble!

Looking in the archives for this id, I see that someone has a 4.1.29 patch
and a complied class, but cannot see either email address or content via the
archive.

Ho hum....

Thanks for the pointer.

Greg

Hi All,

Quick intro, and then a question;

We use tomcat to host java web applications at our

location. My client


requires us to follow very strict rules for deploying

software, that means


it can be a documentation intensive process (evidence

gathering/ IQP's etc


....). So we rarely upgrade as it is quite allot of

work..... Luckily


tomcat is excellent and rarely needs upgrading or patching.

Now the question;

Tomcat 4.1.29 seems to insist on added charset to the

content type, even if


a Content-Type has been set using response.setContentType or similar
(without a charset). Tomcat 5 seems to do something

similar judging from


http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg4
9015.html but

I think it fails to check if the Content type is a text one

(HTML) and adds


it for any content type, which would appear not to be right IMHO.

Without wishing to appear rude :-) I need to change this

behaviour and


remove the insertion of the charset for non text based

Content-Types eg:


application/vnd.ms-excel
