Hi Brian,
I found that instead of using
ApJServAction .avi /servlets/MediaHandeler
the old way of using
AddHandler avi-handler .avi
Action avi-handler /servlets/MediaHandler
still work (used it for extension jsp).
I asked on this list if
- it has any drawbacks compared to ApJServAction?
- Why ApJServAction isn't supported in Location but never got an answer :-(
The benefit of using the AddHandler version is that you can use
it in a <Location> directive. So you know for which urls
the jandler is used.
So you can either put all of your MediaHandler uses inside
<Location> directives.
Or you may use a special handler and location for non-file access
but I don't know if its possible to remove a handler definition
on a location or override it with default behaviour.
