-----------------------------------------


Hello, 

Did you ever find a workaround for this one? 

I'm experiencing the same issue. Jetty also outputs something like 
  Alias request of  '/foo/bar.jsp;jsessionid=xxx' for 
'/foo/bar.jsp;jsessionid=xxx' 
to the log.

This does happen whenever the session is first created - at that time container
cannot know if the cookies are enabled or not so it both writes a cookie and 
encodes all URL's - which is a correct behaviour.

I think it might help to enable alias serving according to 
  http://docs.codehaus.org/display/JETTY/How+to+enable+serving+aliased+files
but I have no clue on how to conf this in Geronimo.

Cheers,
-- Nikla

> Hello,
> another testing here was to check if a webapp would still be usable when the 
> user blocks any cookies from us. JEE typically uses a cookie named JSESSIONID 
> (I think this is specified somewhere) to identify a user at a web request 
> time. Now, if cookies are blocked, the developers are instructed to "encode" 
> the urls using the HttpServletResponse.encode() method. Even the JSTL and 
> c:url use this behaviour (fortunately :P).
> Anyway, today, Jetty had some problems when cookies are blocked. The urls are 
> encoded at request time, so, a url like
> /register.jspx
> becomes
> /register.jspx;jsessionid=<long hexadecimal value>
> Using Tomcat, everything works as expected (i.e. the user gets identified as 
> long as he/she uses the session identifier). Jetty, on the other hand, drops 
> the request with a HTTP 404 error telling that it can't find a file named 
> "register.jspx;jsessionid=<long value>". This is, of course, right. However, 
> it's not the expected behaviour.
> Seems that Jetty can't figure out that this request is encoded ...
