ApacheTomcat - 8.0. 37: Files are not displaying in sorted order.

[Rahul Ranjan <ra...@gmail.com>]

Hi Team,

I am facing an issue. I have a link
[*href="http://pacir.st.tmt.com/nosrw/data/cast/data/
<http://pacir.st.tmt.com/nosrw/data/cast/data/>*] to "*CAST Reports*" on my
webpage, that redirects to the directory on my server "
*/opt/app/pacir/nwpeb/data/cast/data/*" and shows entire files and folders
of directory in browser.

*Code to redirect: *
<tr>
  <td>&nbsp;</td>
     <td class=message>
     <a href="http://pacir.st.tmt.com/nosrw/data/cast/data/"
onMouseOver="self.status = ''; return true" onMouseOut="self.status = '';
return true">CAST Reports</a><br>
     </td>
</tr>


The issue is the files and folder is not showing in a sorted order. I am
attaching you a screenshot for your reference.

As I know by default Apache-Tomcat displays the files in a sorted order. I
don't know why it's behaving like that.

Please help me to know, why it's displaying in unsorted order?

The default servlet doesn't have any documentation to suggest how
things might be sorted by default, or that sorting is an option *at all*
.

Does it?

FWIW, Tomcat 8.0.x has reached end-of-life[1]. The currently supported
versions of Tomcat are: 7.0.x, 8.5.x, 9.0.x.

There is a bug filed against Tomcat 7.0.x and 8.0.x which deals with thi
s:
https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=57287

It looks like it's been ignored for 4.5 years. Are you interested in
testing the existing patch to see if it works for you?
