Hello, all.
I am having trouble serving excel files with Tomcat 5.5.9. This site
uses SSL with form-based authentication through a JDBC user database, I
have added the following to the application's WEB-INF/web.xml file:
<mime-mapping>
<extension>xls</extension>
<mime-type>application/vnd.ms-excel</mime-type>
</mime-mapping>
and the following to the META-INF/context.xml file:
<Valve
className="org.apache.catalina.authenticator.FormAuthenticator"
disableProxyCaching="false" />
to deal with the IE SSL bug.
When trying to link to excel files, however, it appears IE is
interpreting as text as all I get is a page of nonsense characters. This
does not happen in Firefox (of course).
Am I missing something here?
