Hello everyone, I’ve come across a problem for which the “mime-mapping” element would be a good solution. Specifically I have a web application who’s source I can’t change, it’s not returning a specific Content-Type header and I’d like to start utilizing compression based on the mime-type.
Durning my investigation I created a trivial web app for testing but was unable to get the mime-type specified in the mime-mapping applied to requests sent to the specific extension. This was with Tomcat 8.0.33. The details can be found below or at the stack overflow post here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/42261607/tomcat-8-0-mime-mapping-content-type. As noted in the SO post, I can see that StandardContext:addMimeMapping() is being called with my specific mapping during initialization. But I’m never seeing the backing mimeMappings called from there. I’ve seen quite a few online posts on this topic but can’t seem find any official documentation for 8+. Is this feature something that’s still supported? If so, is there something I’m overlooking in my test or configuration? Any light you guys can shine on the subject would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
