Re: How to setup rewrite valve for angularjs

2014-11-24 Thread Ameer Mawia 
Tay,

Quickly glossing over the code, what I understand is, it is breaking while
evaluating one of the conditions mentioned in your re-write rules:


RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !index

Basically it is trying to locate %{REQUEST_FILENAME}%, to evaluate these
conditions. But that file path is being evaluated to NULL, and this confirm
with your request:
GET /web/ HTTP/1.1 500 2990

assuming your web is your application resource root, the path relative to
this root is NULL.

Can you please try, something like:

GET /web/someXYZ.jsp

and it should NOT complained about path being NULL.

Once this is confirmed you can then find a way to handle this NULL path in
re-write rule.

Regards,
Ameer Mawia

 Taking hints from doc page,
 http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.0-doc/rewrite.html and your log, you
 seems to be missing path prex in your substitution string. Can you prefix
 /to index.jsp to your substituion string. That is:

 RewriteRule (.*) index.jsp [L]

   Checking localhost_access.log gives me
 
  127.0.0.1 - - [24/Nov/2014:10:42:18 +0800] GET /web/ HTTP/1.1 500 2990
 
 
 
  I cannot figure out what is the problem, because I can't find anymore
  errors, or stacktrace in any of my logfiles, catalina.stderr etc...
 
  I can't find any information with regard to resource path [null]. What
 have
  I missed out?

 Hi
 I have been reading up tomcat 8's user doc. But I have some problems
 understanding the setup of rewrite valve. I think I should add the rewrite

 rewrite my war context only?


See the second option here...

http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.0-doc/rewrite.html#Configuration

It can also be in the context.xml of a webapp. The valve will then use a
rewrite.config file containing the rewrite directives, it must be placed in
the WEB-INF folder of the web application



 Have anyone written a tutorial or can point me to a source for how-to?


The docs seem pretty thorough but if you need a tutorial you could look for
a mod_rewrite tutorial.  This valve is designed to be similar to
mod_rewrite, so a tutorial for that should be mostly applicable here.

 I am trying to set a single page angularjs app to point
 /context/path/path/... To /context/index.jsp

 Any idea on how to do that?
