that if the URI contains a %2f in the URL path, mod_jk2, or possibly Apache,
ignores the URI mapping to the Web Application Server (Tomcat 4.1.30)
Note: I am using the latest source release of mod_jk2, Apache 2.0.50 and Tomcat 4.1.30.
So say if you have the following mapping in your workers2.properties. [uri:/myapp/web/*]
and you use the full URL http://myhost.com/myapp/web/cmd/slash-%2f-slash/
the URI mapping will be completely ignored. I think if you take any working URL mapping and insert or append the characters "%2f", the mapping will fail and you will get a 404 error from Apache, not Tomcat where you would expect it.
Now I hesitate and think it may be an Apache bug because if the &2f shows up as part of the value for a parameter, the URI mapping will succeed. i.e.
http://myhost.com/myapp/web/cmd/slash/?p1=slash-%2f-slash
Works just fine, its only when the %2f shows up up in the path section of the URI.
Also when I test my servlet under the standalone (port 8080) listener, the system
works just fine and the &2f in the URL path works just fine.
