--------------------------------------
Sure ... alas, I'm completely swamped for the next few months ... but then I'll
get back into the swing of things! Sorry, and thanks.

> Key: AXIS2C-410
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2C-410
> Project: Axis2-C
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: core/context, core/engine, util
> Affects Versions: 0.95
> Reporter: Chris Darroch
> Assigned To: Dinesh Premalal
> Fix For: 1.0.0
>
> Attachments: axis2c-410.patch

> In AXIS2C-380 I mentioned that although Apache httpd and mod_axis2 allow you
> to
> customize the URL location where Web Services will be provided, in Axis2/C
> itself
> this URL prefix is hard-coded. For example, with mod_axis2 you might do, in
> httpd.conf:
> <Location /my/services/here>
> SetHandler axis2_module
> </Location>
> There are several problems here. The main one is that several files in
> modules/core/engine
> call the single function in util/src/utils.c and to "parse" the request's
> URL. However, this
> function just scans for the hard-coded string "/services" -- so it's going to
> fail in this case
> because the "/services" in httpd's <Location> will match "too early". If the
> <Location> is
> something like /foo, it won't match at all.
> Also, even if the <Location> is for /axis2/services, if the incoming request
> is for the URL
> /axis2//services//foo//bar, the extra slashes mean it won't match.
> The attached patch attempts to take care of all these issues by centralizing
> a lot of the
> parse code into modules/core/context/msg_ctx.c and by rewriting
> util/src/utils.c to use
> the axis2_uri_t functions. A new parameter in axis2.xml is introduced,
> "requestURLPrefix",
> which the administrator should set to whatever matches their httpd <Location>.
> This still isn't ideal because really we should match against only what is in
> the
> <Location> directive, and if multiple <Location>s were defined with the
> axis2_module
> handler, they should all work. Having just a single matching parameter in
> axis2.xml
> won't fix this. But, it's a start, I think, and if someone can improve it,
> go for it! Thanks!
