I don't think it is possible, because in tomcat file names are case
sensitive so foo.doc is not same as foo.Doc (if u try to access foo.doc
as foo.Doc tomcat will return 404).
I think - however not sure - the reason for this case sensitive
implemenatation is to get rid of security vulnerability where someone
might be able to see the source code of a jsp file by accessing it as
.Jsp or .JSP

Subject: case (in)sensitive mime-mapping
The mime-mappings in web.xml look like:
<mime-mapping>
<extension>doc</extension>
<mime-type>application/msword</mime-type>
</mime-mapping>
Which works fine if your document is named "foo.doc", but fails
miserably for "foo.Doc", "foo.DOC", etc. Is there a way to configure
Tomcat so that the extensions are case-insensitive?
Thanks!
