Wicket redirects to wrong url upon successful authentication
------------------------------------------------------------
Key: WICKET-2975
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-2975
Project: Wicket
Issue Type: Bug
Components: wicket-quickstart
Affects Versions: 1.4.9
Environment: Tomcat 7.0.2
Reporter: Dominik Drzewiecki
I've built a simple application extending AuthenticatedWebApplication and
reusing Components from wicket-auth. Application behaves differently when
deployed to the latest Tomcat 6.0.x (as of time of writing 6.0.29) and Tomcat
7.0.2. While in case of the former everything is fine, the latter causes the
redirection to ../index.jsp instead of / (which is a homepage). A quick look at
an initial WebRequest constructed in WicketFilter reveals the difference:
Tomcat 6.0.29
[method = GET, protocol = HTTP/1.1, requestURL =
http://localhost:28080/blueprint-app/, contentType = null, contentLength = -1,
contextPath = /blueprint-app, pathInfo = null, requestURI = /blueprint-app/,
servletPath = /, pathTranslated = null]
Tomcat 7.0.2
[method = GET, protocol = HTTP/1.1, requestURL =
http://localhost:18080/blueprint-app/, contentType = null, contentLength = -1,
contextPath = /blueprint-app, pathInfo = null, requestURI = /blueprint-app/,
servletPath = /index.jsp, pathTranslated = null]
Tomcat 7 sems to route the request to JspServlet (observed in
HttpServletRequest filter chain). I'm not that much into tomat internals, but
I've figured out that it is due to the fact that for the "/" ended requests
URIs welcome pages (including index.jsp) should be presented. Overriding the
default welcome-file-list in context's web.xml (as defined in
${catalina.base}/conf/web.xml) to not include index.jsp does the trick
(DefaultServlet is the filter chain's target instead of JspServlet).
This issue probably belongs to Tomcat, but nevertheless a simple modification
to wicket's archetype web.xml renders application usable again.
