John Wagenleitner commented on GROOVY-8294:
-------------------------------------------
I labelled as {{breaking}} just to call out the change in behavior, but think
it does fix a bug and should go in the next 2.4.x release.
> Return 404 for non-existing paths in `TemplateServlet` when running from .war
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: GROOVY-8294
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-8294
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Environment: Payara Micro
> Reporter: Thomas Reifenberger
> Labels: breaking
> Attachments: broken-template-servlet.tar.gz
>
>
> When TemplateServlet is used in application servers that don't unpack a war
> (i.e. when the real path of resources could not be retrieved), an internal
> server error is returned upon trying to retrieve a non-existing template file.
> The expected behavior would be to get a 404, just as it is already the case
> when running from a extracted war.
> I had this behavior when running on a [payara
> micro|https://www.payara.fish/payara_micro] application server using the
> following {{web.xml}} snippet:
> {code}
> <web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" version="2.5">
> <servlet>
> <servlet-name>GroovyTemplate</servlet-name>
> <servlet-class>groovy.servlet.TemplateServlet</servlet-class>
> </servlet>
> <servlet-mapping>
> <servlet-name>GroovyTemplate</servlet-name>
> <url-pattern>*.gsp</url-pattern>
> </servlet-mapping>
> </web-app>
> {code}
> and requesting an url ending in {{*.gsp}}, but without a template with that
> name present.
> Please see the attached minimal example (docker required):
> Run it with:
> {code}
> ./gradlew runDockerContainer
> {code}
> and test the URLs
> http://localhost:8080/test.gsp (works)
> http://localhost:8080/unknown.gsp (500, but I would actually expect a 404)
> The corresponding stacktrace is
> {code}
> java.lang.NullPointerException
