Mapviewer SVG and Content-Type http header

Hello,
We have a Mapviewer installation that seems to be serving up the wrong Content-Type header for the SVG charts. The map is being created correctly and we can get GIF's and such.
The wrong Content-Type causes the Adobe SVG viewer to never render the SVG map successfully. When I save the SVG file to the desktop it opens perfectly or if I statically link it in to the web page from the sever it also opens perfectly. Is there some configuration that is missing somewhere on the mapviewer or the application server to correctly set the Content-Type ?
Notice the content type of the failing map compared to a working SVG chart we have.
HTTP/1.x 200 OK
Content-Length: 41979
Cache-Control: private
Content-Type: application/octet-streamConnection: Keep-Alive
Keep-Alive: timeout=5, max=999

This seems to be the last sticking point in successfully rolling out this mapviewer implementation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, in advance.

Hello,
Thanks for the reply I've tried both SVG_URL and SVGZ_URL and used a http header sniffer to watch what's getting served up and the urls associated with MapViewer SVG are definitely getting served up with that wrong Content-Type.
Our front end is an Oracle APEX environment were we use APEX's SVG charting on the same page and they are getting served up with the correct Content-Type and display correctly, which is nice cause I can watch the header difference's side by side, and we know the mapping itself is working right because we can get image files back
Is there a sever config file or something like the httpd.conf for apache that needs to be set?
Thanks for any help or insight

Tomcat always generates charset in Content-Type http header !!!

Dear All! I need urgent help with a problem I met with and any suggestion are very appreciated!
The problem is:
We are using Tomcat as a web server (and JSP engine), and we would like to use a user control written in C# 2.0 on one of our pages. I've developed such component and tested it using JBuilderX (in fact it resides inside a JSP page). Everything is working fine while debugging using JBuilder, but when I tried to deploy the solution - I got a problem, my dll was not downloaded properly. Let me illustrate this with a test example. I wrote a test html page:
<html > <head> <title>Test</title> </head> <body> <object id="MyControl" height="300" width="550" classid="http://localhost:8080/MyDLL.dll#WindowsControlLibrary1.UserControl1"> </object> </body> </html>
When I tried to open it I did not get my control loaded. I check the headers of the server http response and found that Tomcat added the following string as
Content-Type: application/x-msdownload;charset=ISO-8859-1
I'm positive that in this case Content-Type should look like
Content-Type: application/x-msdownload
(or application/octet-stream if I would choose to define mime type for dll in server's web.xml as
<mime-mapping> <extension>dll</extension> <mime-type>application/octet-stream</mime-type> </mime-mapping>
- it does not matter as I understand )
so Content-Type should not contain any charset for DLL part of response. NO charset=ISO-8859-1 !!
But Tomcat adds it. :-( And I don't know how to prevent him doing that.
On the other hand when I tried to open this page using Tomcat started from within JBuilder (port number in this case is different) - then everything was going good and control was downloaded to "Temporary Internet Files" and shown on the page.
Content-Type field in this case was:
Content-Type: application/x-msdownload
without any charset.
So, my question is: How to suppress Tomcat wish to add the "charset=ISO-8859-1" string to the Content-Type http response header?
What should I do to load my test html page succesfully?
Thanks in advance for you time and patience!
Sincerely yours, Igor

Setting webservice response content type / charset header

I have a webservice .war file.
I need to set the content-type/charset http header and add another http header. I wrote a filter to do that and had partial success. The other header (pics-label) is indeed sent in the response with the correct value. However, setting the content type proved to be another matter.
I read through the documentation that one can set the system property weblogic.webservice.i18n.charset=utf-8. However, this doesn't seem to work. The filter setting the header also doesn't work. It seems that weblogic has the final word on that. Only when I set the <web-service> element attribute charset="UTF-8" does the header gets back to the client.
Due to deployment/build related issues which I won't get into, this is most annoying.
If anyone has encountered a similiar issue and have a solution/workaround/thoughts I'll be glad to hear about it.
P.S.
Also tried -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 but didn't do any good.
Thanks.

you don't define a charset for non-text file types. Excel files are not text files.

OSB - Content length http header missing from business service out message

Hi all,
I am having some diffuclty with a business service in OSB. I created the business service from the wsdl and created a regular proxy service that just routes to the business service. When i run the test console i get the below fault.
<faultcode>soapenv:Server</faultcode>
<faultstring>BEA-380000: Length Required</faultstring>
<detail>
After some debugging i find that the content length http header is missing from the outbound message the business process creates and sends to the acutal web service which sends back the http 411 fault.
Does anyone know how to configure the message flow of my proxy service to ensure that the outbound message sent from the business service contains that content length http header or any suggestions on how to fix this issue will be appreciated.
Thanks

Disable the "Use Chunked Streaming Mode" property in HTTP Transport Configuration of your business service. By default it remains enabled.

No Content type in header error

Hi
getting the error "No content type in header" after i gave credentials in my home screen .
But i can able to run generic application
and while starting my jdev am getting some firewall warning messages
as "Windows firewall blocked some of the features of jdev on all public ,private and domain networks"
Is there any connection between these too ??
Please help me in this
TIA

User, How should we possibly answer this?
You not even shared the minimal information like jdev version. What kind of application is it? Credentials mean security. Which kind of security?
Reading your stack trace I see 'portal', 'webservice', 'ADFC-10001: cannot instantiate class 'com.smartworkplace.reseravations.home.HomePageReservations' so there are plenty of hints for you to follow up.
For us to help you need to provide more detailed information.

Error after updating field and content type

Hi,
I have a feature with a custom list and content type.
I changed one field type from Text to Note, and made the same change in my Schema.xml file.
But after deploying I get an error when I visit my list.
"The file name you specified could not be used. It may be the name of an
existing file or directory, or you may not have permission to access
the file".
I have several sites with the same list, and all gives the same error.
What I understand from the ULS logs it can't find my schema file, but when I look at the 14 hive it is there.
ULS
Failed to open the file 'schema.xml'.
Failed to retrieve the list schema for feature {4D3315CB-7F20-4DB3-9CB3-258AC110F9BC}, list template 21973; expected to find it at: "".
Any ideas about how to fix this?
The text expected to find it at: "" can be the problem as I have my schema file in a folder named Correspondence List.
And in the 14 hive I find the schema at 14\TEMPLATE\FEATURES\my feature\Correspondence List\Schema.xml
This is from my manifest file:
<ElementManifest Location="Correspondence\Elements.xml" />
<ElementManifest Location="Correspondence List\Elements.xml" />
<ElementFile Location="Correspondence List\Schema.xml" />
Any help are appriciated

HTTPS and content type images

Why is image considered a unsecure content type over HTTPS?
Thanks

That's meaningless. Everything is secure over HTTPS as long as it's implemented properly at both ends.
Possibly you are referring to mixed HTML pages where the text is transmitted via HTTPS and the images via HTTP.

Setting content-type response header in BlazeDS

Per this JIRA ticket, http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/BLZ-428 , there is a suggested fix that includes setting the response content-type header to text/xml.
The JIRA ticket name is
pinging endpoint Returns a HTTP: Status 200 in ie8
and the suggested fix is:
The problem appears to be completely worked around by setting the following headers in our HTTP responses to Flash:
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=UTF-8
Cache-Control: no-cache
What is the best way to do this is if using BlazeDS?
I have tried to set the content-type within my data service desitnation class, by accessing the HttpServletResponse from the FlexContext class, however this does not work. The content-type is still "application/x-amf" in the response. I am assuming that BlazeDS sets the content-type sometime after my data service desination code is invoked.
I have also tried to create a servlet filter and set the content-type header both before and after (in a finally block) my data service code is invoked, however neither of these approaches successfully ended up with a content-type of "text/xml" in the response. My sense is that setting the content-type prior to the data service destination code is too early in the chain and setting in the finally block is too late (per the servlet spec you cannot set the content-type after getWriter() has been called).
Any ideas are appreciated.
Also any other ideas on how to solve the general IE8 issue described in the bug above are appreciated.
I am using...
BlazeDS version: 3.2.0.3978
Flex SDK version: 3.4
App Server: JBoss 4.5
Java: 1.5_16
Thanks,
Kevin

Hi,
in the meantime I found a "known issue" that seems to be related to my problem but it is said to be fixed with 10.0 MP1 (and we use 10.3):
ChangeRequest number: CR316761, CR318708
Description. The servlet container used to append charset=ISO-8859-1 to the HTTP Header contentType in the response for non-JSP pages with any charset contents. This would result in improper display of multibyte characters.
This problem has been resolved.
Maybe the information is wrong. I will examine the CR and may apply them on our 10.3 environment but I would be glad if some oracle/bea engineer would intervene here.
Cheers

XML Parser and Content-type/encoding problem

I've write a little and simple XML parser and a simple "trasformer" that recive an XML file and an XSL one and return HTML, here is the code:
public static String toHTML(Document doc, String xslSource){
        ByteArrayOutputStream testo = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        try{
            DOMSource source = new DOMSource(doc);
            TransformerFactory tFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
            System.out.println("----> " + xslSource);
            Transformer transformer = tFactory.newTransformer(new StreamSource(xslSource));
            transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.INDENT, "yes");
            transformer.setOutputProperty("{http://xml.apache.org/xslt}indent-amount", "2");
            transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.METHOD, "html");
         transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.OMIT_XML_DECLARATION, "yes");
         transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.ENCODING, "UTF-8");
            transformer.transform(source, new StreamResult(testo));
        }catch(Exception ioe){
            System.out.println("2 XMLTool.toHTML " + new java.util.Date());
            System.out.println(ioe);
        return testo.toString();
    }the problem is that I would like to put the HTML code its return into a JEditorPane; now I'm trying with this code:
JEditorPane jep1 = new JEditorPane();
jep1.setContentType("text/html");
jep1.setText(v);
// 'v' is the string returned by the code posted up (the XML/XSL transformer)but I can't see anything in my JEditorPane.
I think that the problem is this line of code that the transformer add automaticaly ad HTML code:
<META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">Infact if I try to delete this line from the code I can see what I want but is'n good delete a line of code without understend where is the problem.
So, can anyone help me?

good.
when u set ur output properties to html , transformer
searches for all entity references and converts accordingly.
if u r using xalan these files will be used for conversion of
Character entity references for markup-significant
output_html.properties
(this should be in templates package)
and HTMLEntities.res(should be in serialize package)

Document Sets and Content Types

Hi All,
I am having trouble in getting the "document sets" content types applied as expected when I try to create a site based off custom template.
Scenario:
We have 8 document sets stored in a document library. This library is part of a site which we have saved as a template.
E.g. of document sets is "Others", "Meetings" etc
Each of these document sets have one or more content types associated with it.
We are trying to create a site based off the saved site template using powershell.
E.g. $web = New-SPWeb http://myserver/sites/mysite/subsite
$web.ApplyWebTemplate("{GUID}#Name of Template")
When we open the document sets in this newly created site, the content types seem to be coming all together rather than being associated with the specific document set.
E.g. Clicking "New document" in the "others" document set would show up content types from "meeting" and all the remaining document sets present in that library.
Interestingly, when I go to "Document Set" settings, I only see the content type of "Others" Document Set.
Any idea why the "New document" dropdown for the document set is not behaving as expected?

Hi Abhi,
Based on your description, I did a test. In my testing, everything worked well.
The steps are:
Go to Site Actions->Site Settings->Site content types.
Create a new content type, and select parent content type from Document Set Content Types, and Parent Content Type: Document Set
Click ok
Under Settings, click Document Set settings
On the Allowed Content Type section, select some content types and add them
Click OK
Then repeat step2-6, and create another custom document set
Open your library, and allow management of content types in advanced settings
Add the two document sets into the library
Check each document set, and each one had different content types
Save the site as a template and include the content
Create a new site based on the site template using PowerShell(the command was same with yours)
After creating, check the document sets of the library in the new site, everything worked well.
Please check your process as the above steps.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,
Wendy

Managed Metadata Service and Content Type Hubs - Service Connection necessary?

I created a site collection and activated the content type hub feature at the site collection level. We have an existing managed metadata service but I am unable to edit its settings, so I created a new MMS in a new database, however; there is no "service
connection" row below the MMS row for the new MMS Application, but there is one for the old MMS Application. Will this still work with my content type hub? If not, how can I get the service connection setting/row? I have to do this via PowerShell since
the menus in the ribbon are not usable due to our JavaScript settings...

How to set RelationshipDeleteBehavior on a list using a site column and content type programatically CSOM c#

On Prem development machine, I'm writng a deployment routine in c# using the client object model. I've created some site columns of type Lookup, I've created a content type and added those lookup columns to it and I've created a list using the
content type. I want to set the RelationshipDeleteBehavior property on some of the lookup columns in the list. I'm also using the 16 assemblies.
List list = cc.Web.GetListByTitle("MyList");
cc.Load(list);
cc.ExecuteQuery();
Field f = list.Fields.GetByInternalNameOrTitle("MyLookupField");
cc.Load(f);
cc.ExecuteQuery();
(f
as
FieldLookup).RelationshipDeleteBehavior =
RelationshipDeleteBehaviorType.Restrict;
f is returning as a Field but (f
as
FieldLookup) is returning null here. Any insight on this?
Thank you.
Dan Budimir

Hi,
We can use SP.ClientContext.castTo method to convert the field to lookup field . The following code snippet for your reference:
ClientContext context = new ClientContext("http://siteurl");
NetworkCredential credentials = new NetworkCredential("username", "password", "domain");
context.Credentials = credentials;
Web web = context.Web;
List list = web.Lists.GetByTitle("MyList");
Field field = list.Fields.GetByInternalNameOrTitle("MyLookupField");
FieldLookup lookupField = context.CastTo<FieldLookup>(field);
lookupField.RelationshipDeleteBehavior = RelationshipDeleteBehaviorType.Restrict;
lookupField.Indexed = true;
lookupField.Update();
context.ExecuteQuery();

Set content type on header doesn't work on servlet filter

I am trying the following filter:
chain.doFilter(req, responseWrapper);
and im trying to set the content type:
response.SetHeader("Content-Type","text/plain");
But it doesn't seem to set it.
I have the wrapper as:
private ByteArrayOutputStream     output;
     private int                              contentLength;
     private String                         contentType;
     private CharArrayWriter               myOut;
     private int                              mode;
     public JPServletResponseWrapper(HttpServletResponse response) {
          super(response);
          output = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
          this.myOut = new CharArrayWriter();
     public ServletOutputStream getOutputStream() throws IOException {
          this.setMode(2);
          return new JPServletOutputStream(output);
     public PrintWriter getWriter() throws IOException {
          this.setMode(1);
          return new PrintWriter(this.myOut);
     public byte[] getData() {
          return output.toByteArray();
     public int getContentLenght() {
          return this.contentLength;
     public void setContentLength(int len) {
          this.contentLength = len;
          super.setContentLength(len);
     public String getContentType() {
          return this.contentType;
     public void setContentType(String type) {
          this.contentType = type;
          super.setContentType(type);
     public int getMode() {
          return mode;
     public void setMode(int mode) {
          this.mode = mode;
     public String toString() {
          return myOut.toString();
The page is being displayed as text/html and not as text/plain.
Is there any reason?

Exception in encoding and content type

Hello everyone,
I am using JavaMail API 1.1.3 to download mails from POP3 servers. The application seems to be working fine except when I am seeing the following entries in the message header:
1) Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bits
Exception -- Unknown encoding: 8bits
2) Content-Type: text/plain;
charset="utf-7"
Unsupported encoding exception -- utf-7 [could not load class sun.io.ByteToCharutf-7]
3) Content-Type: text/plain;
charset="koi8-r"
Did anyone encounter this before and/or have a resolution? Appreciate if you can share if there is a fix.
Thanks in advance.

By default, getContent() will return decoded text. But,some mail server will put 8bits instead of 8bit. Javamail will throw exception when encoding is "8bits". In that case, you will have to decode the message by yourself, force using "8bit".
Part 2 & 3 of the problem - it is not able to find the character set support.
