--- Comment #2 from Dinesh Ilindra <dinesh....@gmail.com> --- "return DECLINE" means that the httpd server can continue the request processing to the next possible option For example, if uri "/app/*" is configured to goto mod_jk and there is an error occurred in mod_jk processing (could be any reason), then the 500 code is returned and httpd also passes the same 500 to the requester no, the other option here is that if an error occurred in mod_jk processing, it sends DECLINE to httpd, so that if a static folder with name "/app" is present on the docroot, that contents will be served based on the uri So, here the static content that is on httpd server docroot will act as failover pages for the dynamic content that was supposed to be returned by mod_jk in an error scenario, rather than to return a 500 page Hope this detail is more clear. - Dinesh -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
