            Bug ID: 60333
           Summary: inconsistency in folder name from webapps to work
                    folder
           Product: Tomcat 8
           Version: 8.5.x-trunk
          Hardware: PC
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Connectors
          Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org
          Reporter: prahalad.prabha...@sap.com
  Target Milestone: ----

Hi,

When we deploy a web application which has a "#" symbol in its name (eg .
SAPBI#BOE ) in the webapps folder , until tomcat 7.0.67 , it would
automatically replace the "#" symbol with the "_" symbol (ie SAPBI_BOE) in the
work folder.

Also while accessing the URL as <localhost>:<port>/SAPBI/BOE it would
successfully be mapped to the SAPBI_BOE folder in work directory.

However the same isn't being observed from Tomcat 8. In all the newer versions
of Tomcat (ie. 8 onwards and even on 9 ) the webapps and work direcotry have
the same name.

This is causing our application deployment to Fail.

However , if we rename the same web application as SAPBI_BOE in the webapps
folder , it creates the same folder in work and it is accessible via the URL :
<localhost>:<port>/SAPBI_BOE.

Attaching a sample war file for reference. Kindly copy the same to webapps
folder and restart tomcat 8.0.1 and above.


Thanks,
Prahalad.
