Directory browsing enabled

Directory browsing enabled flag is disabled by default. But if you enable it then the websphere application server will display the content of .war file (Excluding the WEB-INF folder) and let you browse through it.

I do have this simple WebAppExtensionSample.war file that has js folder at the root level, which has one .js file. I enabled the directory browsing and then i went to the web application context root and this is what i see



Make sure that you disable this feature before deploying your application in production
