Richard below are the contents I posted to the list recently. Let me know what you think.
We have the following problem with Virtual Hosting and server side forwards. We are using Apache with Tomcat (modjk). Our host (webapp) is configured at /Users/jalvarado/Developer/webapps/appname The app can be accessed http://www.somedomain.com We also have a virtual host http://somename.somedomain.com which is configured to point to /Users/jalvarado/Developer/webapps/appname/virtualHostDirectory Within that virtual host, we cannot get any server side forwards to work. Lets say we want to do a Forward to /cs/content.jsp within the virtual host (remember that the virtual host is configured at /Users/jalvarado/Developer/webapps/appname/virtualHostDirectory) this operation does not work because the container will look for /cs/content.jsp starting at /Users/jalvarado/Developer/webapps/appname and not at /Users/jalvarado/Developer/webapps/appname/virtualHostDirectory So what we are forced to do for now is to use redirects in our forwards which is not the desired choice for us. If anyone has run into this kind of problem/challenge and if you could share any ideas or solutions you have implemented I'd greatly appreciate it since this is a VERY urgent matter for us. This is creating some issues for us in terms of losing the request object and having to put things in the sessio which really should not be there. Thanks in advance Richard I actually got it to work by prefixing /appname to our forwards. However our project leader still has some issues with this so therefore I have sort of given up on it.
