EAP 7 returns 404s for any static content served from a directory starting with WEB-INF or META-INF

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Our application serves static content from some directories that start with WEB-INF or META-INF (such as WEB-INFOOBAR or META-INFOOBAR). After moving to EAP 7, we now get 404s for any of this content. This worked previously on EAP 6 or Tomcat.

Environment

  • JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) 7.x
