 If you look at the servlet spec (section 11.2), you'll see that the
 above is not valid other than for matching the exact request /sales.
 Newer versions of Tomcat are more strict in their implementation of the
 rules in the spec, so it's not too surprising that 6.0 works properly
 and 4.1 let you slide by.
 
 Looks like the url-pattern should really be /sales/* (without the
 quotes).

I want to match the pattern /sales but it instead adds an extra slash and
tries to list directory /sales/.  Is there any way to change the order in
which it resolves the url, i.e. check for servlet-mapping first, then check
for directory?

server mapping behaviour when directory structure mirrors mappings

2007-12-10 Thread Matthew Thomas Broadhead

Recently upgraded Tomcat from version 4.1.31 to 6.0.14.

In my webapp I mapped servlets to paths without extensions
e.g.
servlet-mapping
servlet-nameSales/servlet-name
url-pattern/sales/url-pattern
/servlet-mapping
Then in the root of the webapp there is a directory with the same  
name (e.g. sales) in which all the resources for that servlet are  
stored.


This worked fine in 4.1.31 but in 6.0.14 it adds a slash at the end  
of the url and behaves like it is in the root of the directory rather  
than loading the servlet mapping first.
