continueToOriginal() leaves context on Tomcat
---------------------------------------------
Key: WICKET-3881
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-3881
Project: Wicket
Issue Type: Bug
Components: wicket-core
Affects Versions: 1.4.17
Environment: Tomcat 5,6 and 7
Reporter: Sven Meier
continueToOriginal() leaves the current web context on Tomcat, see attached
quickstart.
Evaluation:
In ServletWebRequest#getRelativePathPrefixToContextRoot() the servletPath is
used:
String servletPath = getServletPath();
if (servletPath.endsWith(path))
{
int len = servletPath.length() - path.length() - 1;
if (len < 0)
{
len = 0;
}
wicketPath = servletPath.substring(0, len);
}
Problem is that Tomcat returns "/index.html" as servletPath when:
- Wicket is running as filter (as usual)
- request path is ""
- welcome-file-list contains "index.html" (in web.xml or Tomcat's default)
- index.html exists
Note: Jetty would return "/". For more info see here:
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=50161
The code above will evaluate wicketPath as "/index.htm" (should be ""), thus
leading the following calculation to prepend an erroneous additional "../".
I've added a temporary workaround to my project by simply removing the
index.html. But I'm really not sure what's the best way to fix this problem in
Wicket.
Note that this problem does not exist with Wicket 1.5.
