Maybe something wrong with your environment. It works not only for me but for others who vote me up. Why did you vote me down?

To all reading this answer. You should NOT set readonly to false in the default servlet to enable PUT and DELETE requests against your REST API. This allows unauthenticated users to upload and delete files and leads to a severe Remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability in Tomcats released before October 2017: alphabot.com/security/blog/2017/java/…
