A lot depends on whether you use Tomcat or Apache for HTML rendering. You can configure Apache 2.4 to render HTML and delegate JSP to Tomcat. In this scenario, you can configure Apache to be case insensitive. See this link:

Usually jsp pages are referenced by links, so the developer controls the case of the URL.

It is possible in Tomcat 6 and earlier, but not recommended. Refer this Link from apache documentation. Search for caseSensitive. By default it is true
