Chris Colman commented on WICKET-2912:
--------------------------------------
I switched over to using a filter based redirector instead of relying on the
'welcome-file-list' mechanism to detect a domain name with no path/file suffix
and everything works fine again - without needing the patch to PageMap.java
I guess the use of the 'welcome-file-list' to detect a request from just a
[sub]domain name without any path/file/query specified was really just a short
cut/hack that I should have avoided and achieved with a proper filter like I
have now.
So I guess we should mark this issue as 'not a bug' until someone really needs
to do what I was doing - but that's probably unlikely.

> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: wicket
> Affects Versions: 1.4.9
> Environment: Occurs on both Windows and Linux

> After recommendation we recently switched wicket app from /content to /
> (root) context. App was working fine before but after switching to root
> context calls to continueToOriginalDestination give 404 errors in IE but
> continues to work perfectly in FireFox and Opera.
> Patch to fix the problem:
> I have provided a fix to PageMap's continueToOriginalDestination that fixes
> the problem on IE and continues to work fine on FireFox and Opera for all the
> tests I could throw at it.
> This patch breaks some unit tests - probably tests that the redirect occurs
> on the exact interceptContinuationURL that was originally provided, naturally
> after stripping off the leading '/' these would no longer work.
> This fix may cause problems when the web app is NOT in the root context but
> I'm not sure - they may be fine with this.
> public final boolean continueToOriginalDestination()
> {
> // Get request cycle
> final RequestCycle cycle = RequestCycle.get();
> // If there's a place to go to
> if (interceptContinuationURL != null)
> {
> >> ADDED if ( interceptContinuationURL.length() > 0 &&
> >> interceptContinuationURL.charAt(0) == '/' )
> >> ADDED interceptContinuationURL =
> >> interceptContinuationURL.substring(1);
> cycle.setRequestTarget(new
> RedirectRequestTarget(interceptContinuationURL));
> // Reset interception URL
> interceptContinuationURL = null;
> // Force session to replicate page maps
