CSS MIME type served as text/plain

[Johan Meyer]

With static resources I get the following browser error with my css files:
Resource interpreted as Stylesheet but transferred with MIME type text/plain

Im running my service on Tomcat8 so my app is extending Filter and using SparkFilter in web.xml.

No requests for static resources is coming through to my filter so there is no way for me to set the correct mime type.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Please share the web.xml configuration file.

You need to leave the assets to tomcat. Not to the filter.

I decided to rather not use staticFileLocation() and apply my own filter to handle static resources as I need to set different expiration dates for diff resources which Im not able to do with spark.

I'd be quite interested in a good solution to Johan's problem - as I was trying to solve a similar problem. And my work around feels very hacky :(

Thanks
