Tomcat processes HTTP query and URL using RFC 7230 standards. But multiple
leading forward slash support was disabled by default for good reasons.
This was done in 8.5.31 due to issues with Http Redirects involving
Servlets.
If you must use this, you have to modify your application context to add
the override as true - the attribute is called
"allowMultipleLeadingForwardSlashInPath".
https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.5-doc/config/context.html
But I would sincerely recommend that you work on such designs and correct
them in your application. There is always a "way". This is one of the
reasons web applications become obsolete requires huge maintenance.
