Oracle WebLogic Server - Version 10.3.2 and laterInformation in this document applies to any platform.
Symptoms
Web application (webapp) is deployed on Weblogic 10.3.2 (WLS) with Sun JDK 1.6.0_18.
As per JDK javadoc on MIME type, a file named "mime.types" with the extra file types is placed in the META-INF/ directory of the webapp. This is in accordance to the search order for MIME type, as noted in JDK javadoc, is as follows:
- Programmatically added entries to the MimetypesFileTypeMap instance.
- The file .mime.types in the user's home directory.
- The file <JAVA_HOME>/lib/mime.types.
- The file or resources named META-INF/mime.types.
- The file or resource named META-INF/mimetypes.default (usually found only in the activation.jar file).
When invoking test JSP in the webapp, instead of the expected result --
Word file::application/msword
Text file::text/plain
Text file::text/plain
WLS 10.3.2 returns the following incorrect result --
Word file::application/octet-stream
Text file::text/plain
Text file::text/plain
