Hello I'm relatively new to using Tomcat, and need help with what (should be) an easy task. I've searched through the archives, but haven't found the information I need.
I'm basically trying to do a mod_rewrite, but using tomcat (without apache installed). I've read up on the tuckey.org/urlrewrite, and this filter seems to handle exactly what I want. But I can't get it to work. As I understand it, the steps would be : 1 ) Download the jar files and put them into a urlrewrite directory off the WEB-INF directory. 2) Alter the web.xml file to include this filter (using code straight form the tuckey.org site) 3) Alter the urlrewrite file to include the rules that I want (some basic substitutions from google-searchable URLs ex. /pageid/ -> &pageid= ) 4) Restart tomcat. However, as soon as I add the filter code into the web.xml file, all requests return a 404 error (whether the request uses the filter or not). This seems like such an easy task, but I can't get it to work. If anybody can please point out something I'm overlooking, I would appreciate it. I'm using tomcat 4.1 on Win2K server.
