    ClickOnce is just a static file, prepared in a specified format. The clickonce file uses a special MimeType mapping, namely

    application/x-ms-application

    To configure this in tomcat, either in the $TOMCAT/conf/web.xml or the web context,

    <mime-mapping>
   <extension>application</extension>
   <mime-type>application/x-ms-application</mime-type>
</mime-mapping>

    Alternatively, if you use Apache in front of Tomcat to accelerate static files, you can add the mime type mapping like this in the /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file

    AddType application/x-ms-application .application
