           Summary: HTTP requests that map to filter mapping but not to
                    filesystem path are unnecessarily redirected by Tomcat
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: 5.5.9
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Hi,

I am not too sure if this is a bug, a caveat or a lack in my knowledge of these 
matters.

If I configure a web application with a filter with a filter mapping of 

/*

Then I would expect any request that matches the web application context (a la 
JK->Tomcat AJP URI mappings) to be entered into that filter.

I have a web application that will respond to URLs that do not exist using the 
filter method. Therefore a reques to 

http://localhost/utilities

Whilst not a folder within the web application file structure, is still mapped 
to the ROOT web application, and should enter the filter with the /utilities 
part of the URL intact.

Instead, Tomcat sees that /utilities is not a folder, and sends a redirect to 
JK for

http://localhost/

This time, my filter is entered into but with just / as the request URI.

Is it correct that Tomcat should not allow the web application to decide (via a 
filter mapping or servlet mapping even) whether to handle any inbound request 
where the mapping is of the type /*

I note that by adding an empty folder of utilities to the web application 
causes the

http://localhost/utilities

to work.

Kind regards.
