--- Comment #4 from Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org> --- The text from the spec is: <quote> If the effective web.xml (after merging information from fragments and annotations) contains any url-patterns that are mapped to multiple servlets then the deployment must fail. </quote> I've traced this back to the original EG discussion and it was only considering one URL pattern mapping to multiple Servlets. The case of duplicate mappings (same URL, same servlet) was not discussed. While I accept that the spec language is not as explicit as I thought, I remain of the view that this should be a WONTFIX. If this situation arises, clearly an error has occurred. The proposed solution assumes one particular error and "auto-corrects" based on that assumption. However, the assumption may not be valid. I think it is better to fail the deployment and require the error to be fixed rather than making assumptions about how it should be fixed. -- 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
