In recently released Apache HTTPD 2.4.29 the mime mappings for fonts in its conf/mime.types file were updated from application/* to font/*. Commit: r1810122 RFC8081, published in February 2017: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8081 Discussion on dev@httpd: "mime type woff woff2" on 2017-09-18 http://httpd.markmail.org/thread/fvzh4r7qh55drtk6 I think that r1810122 can be backported to Apache Tomcat.
Fixed in: - trunk for 9.0.2 onwards - 8.5.x for 8.5.24 onwards - 8.0.x for 8.0.48 onwardse - 7.0.x for 7.0.83 onwards
