Hi,
I am using tomcat 3.1 on windows95.
I am trying to get RequestDispatcher from the
HttpServletRequest.getRequestDispatcher(). I am having a problem.
what I did is as follows:
I tried out the following on tomcat3.1 and these are the results that I
got Context path here was /junk
available servlet mappings in my web.xml are
/first
/first/
/first/abc
/second
/first/second
/first/abc/second
Cases tried out.
A)
1) called /junk/first
2) Got RequestDispathcher by the method =
response.getRequestDispatcher("second");
-- Got a RequestDispathcer which was not null but could not forward
to it. The message got was page not found.
B)
1) called /junk/first/
2) Got RequestDispathcher by the method
response.getRequestDispatcher("second");
-- Got forwarded successfully to /junk/first/second
C)
1) called /junk/first/abc
2) Got RequestDispathcher by the method
response.getRequestDispatcher("second")
-- Got forwarded successfully to /junk/first/second
Why did the RequestDispatcher not work in the case 'A'. I think it
should have forwarded to /junk/first/second or to /junk/second.
but it did not forward to any of these. How is the RequestDispatcher
supposed to work in this case??
Can Anyone pl. explain to me why is it happening like this??
Regds & Thanks,
Gokul
