I also try to add a rewrite Valve to StandardEngine. And it is also does not work . Before reach that Valve, tomcat already replied that redirect response. > Now, about what Mikolaj wrote before (using the /foo/ URL) I think you > misunderstand what he is saying. > What he meant is probably this : > You seem to be using a http client that is not a browser, but some kind of > program or module.

If I get 302 response and write some code to resend quest to the redirected location, then I can always get what I want . It is not efficient , you know. It needs to talk to tomcat server twice . Is there shortcut way to do that ?
