Unexpected Content-Type Response

[Andy Arismendi]

Hi, I'm trying to put a membrane serviceProxy in front of a third part nodejs application that runs on a non standard port. I've been trying different proxy.xml configuration and have it working with a URL context that includes a trailing slash e.g. /survey123/ but only partially working without a trailing slash e.g. /survey123. The issue that is happening with the latter is the javascript file Content-Type response headers are being set to text/html instead of application/javascript. I have no clue why this is happening. Any help would be appreciated! Here is my config (note the comments). Also note it's running as a WAR on Tomcat under webapps/survey123.

           <!-- Direct to 5443 gives

                   Content-Type: application/javascript; charset=UTF-8

                Proxy instead gives

                   Content-Type: text/html;charset=UTF-8

           <target url="https://upstream-server.domain.local:5443/">

               <ssl />

           </target>

       </serviceProxy>

   </router>

</spring:beans>

I got something working, in web.xml I changed the url pattern from /* to / which started causing a 302 redirect to /survey123/ which worked with the serviceProxy.

web.xml

    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>membrane</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>

proxies.xml

      <target host="upstream-server.domain.local" port="5443">
           <ssl />
      </target>

Looks like in addition to the above I also needed removeContextRoot="true" in proxies.xml.

        <web:servletTransport id="transport" removeContextRoot="true">
