Hi,

In org.apache.cocoon.environment.http.HttpEnvironment.redirect() I found the
following code:

-----------------------------------------------------
       // redirect
       String redirect = this.response.encodeRedirectURL(newURL);

       // FIXME (VG): WebSphere 4.0/4.0.1 bug
       if (!newURL.startsWith("/") && newURL.indexOf(':') == -1 &&
redirect.indexOf(':') != -1) {
           getLogger().debug("Redirect: WebSpehere Bug Detected!");
           String base = NetUtils.getPath(request.getRequestURI());
           if (base.startsWith("/")) {
               base = base.substring(1);
           }
           redirect = response.encodeRedirectURL(base + '/' + newURL);
       }
----------------------------------------------------------

Is this related to translating relative url's into absolute url's

AFAIR, this relates to error in websphere's relative-to-absolute translation.

and
would this be the place to implement translating relative redirect url's in
absolute url's as mentioned in the following thread:

http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-dev&m=103926206004897&w=2

Yes, this could be the place. Right before first encodeRedirectURL call, so container gets only absolute URLs to encode.

TIA,
