RE: How to configure a custom page for JSP 404 errors?
You also MUST set in your error page the faloving tag: %@ page isErrorPage=true % Hades -Original Message- From: Ryan Lubke [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, July 06, 2001 10:29 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: How to configure a custom page for JSP 404 errors? Hi Pierce, From what I've been able to gather, you should be able to set the error page using the error-page directive within the deployment descriptor for a web app (web.xml). error-page error-code404/error-code location/error.jsp/location /error-page Looking through the bug database, there was an open issue regarding the use of static html pages within the location tag. I'm uncertain at this time what release it's actually fixed in, but if you try it and get a stacktrace, then I guess you know :) The bug report can be found here: http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=291 I did find this information in the archives. Try looking at the results of the following search: http://mikal.org/interests/java/tomcat/archive/search?search=error+page+ custom+404 I'm sure those who are more experiences could expand/correct on this information. Hope this helps. -rl Courtney, Pierce wrote: Hello, This question probably has come up before, I just can't find it in the archives I am using Tomcat 3.2.2 standalone (not with Apache). How can I configure a particular page (servlet, static html, or jsp) to be the default page that comes up if the requested jsp is not found, instead of the 404 error. In other words, if a user requests: http://myTomcatSite.com/somePage.jsp I want to have somePage.jsp come up if it exists. But if somePage.jsp does not exist, I *don't* want the default 404 error to be displayed. Instead I want some custom page (a servlet actually) to be processed. I don't really care if this is achieved with a client-side redirect or a server-side include/forward. I have tried using the DefaultServlet, which doesn't seem to work. I have also set up my own servlet against url-pattern /* /url-pattern. This works for servlets only, not JSPs. It seems the basic problem is that any URI that matches *.jsp. gets processed by the JspServlet. So it is not determined if the .jsp file actually exists or not until the JspServlet is triggered. Can this custom error page functionality be configured somehow in Tomcat? Thanks for any help, Pierce Courtney [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Apache and servlet maping....
Hi I've installed Apache recently; I'm also using Tomcat. The problem seems to be that Apache does not want to allow my servlet mappings. I have some files whit a specific extension lets call them .myext. I've configured Tomcat to map a servlet to all .myext files. I've added JkMount /myapp/*.myext ajp12 and even JkMount /*.myext ajp12 to the httpd.conf file. The idea is that this .myext files are some "restricted" files i do not want to grant access to them. So the servlet was redirecting all the requests for these files to an "access denied" jsp. All these was working when Tomcat was stand alone... now it looks like Apache is serving all requests for .myext... what can I do ? Hades

Wel, I made that in Tomcat Stand Alone, every web server has its own way
(I think...)
But here is what you have to do in Tomcat:
In the server.xml :
locate :
RequestInterceptor
className="org.apache.tomcat.request.StaticInterceptor" debug="0"
suppress="false" /
and rewrite it to :
RequestInterceptor
className="org.apache.tomcat.request.StaticInterceptor" debug="0"
suppress="true" /
This works for me... if its not workin' for you than try seting :
suppress="true" in other request interceptors .

RE: Welcome File : index.html
Hi. I have a similar problem... My app. has many folders and I do not want to put an index file in each of them... Especially that it has more sub app.'s so I would need different index files for different folders... it would be nasty to put one in each of them and after that, if something changes to change all the files... I would like to have some kind of redirection set to some folder levels (so everything beneath them to call its own index...) Problem nr 2 is: how can I restrict folder browsing Thanx Hades -Original Message- From: Ed Robbins [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, April 10, 2001 3:03 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Welcome File : index.html Joar Vatnaland wrote: How did you change the welcome-file, did you just append an welcome-filesample.html/welcome-file after the other entries? My guess is that it goes through the list and starts with the first file it finds. So if an index.jsp or index.html still exists in your directory, then that will still be the starting file. Either remove the index file from the directory, or place your entry ahead of any other wellcome-file entry. Joar is right, if there is a list it will go through the list until it finds the first match. Also, make sure you have the welcome-file tag within a welcome-file-list tag, so it should look like the following: welcome-file-list welcome-filewelcome.html/welcome-file welcome-fileindex.html/welcome-file welcome-filehome.html/welcome-file welcome-file-list Don't forget that each web app has it's own web.xml file and you want to put it in the appropriate file.
