http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25338 URI Rewrite does not function according to Servlet2.3 specifications (jsession= , servlet-mapping & filter-mapping) Summary: URI Rewrite does not function according to Servlet2.3 specifications (jsession= , servlet-mapping & filter- mapping) Product: Tomcat 4 Version: Unknown Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: Other Component: Catalina AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] A URI is improperly distpatched when the ;jsession=xxx is added to the URI. The catalina lookup uses everything from the URI:hostname:port to the ? delimiter to define a "resource". When ;jsession=xxx is added upon the uri for return the resource is not found. The published FIX is to enable the apache- web-server's mod_rewrite and have the webserver fix this for tomcat... this is an inappropriate fix. Since tomcat is bundled in Jboss as a stand-alone webservice (and when tested in stand-alone, without apache), it can not use the apache-mod_rewrite hack. The catalina module needs to correctly handle the resource information, if the ;jsession=xxx is not within spec, then for compliance to spec this habit will have to change. Another bug discovered while debugging this issue... The filter-mapping /* does not filter calls to the traditional servlet- mapping="*.do" for struts. This breaks the filter-mapping concept. Luckily for me the ;jsession=xxx bug is not caught by the servlet *.do mapping and my filter can catch this to reroute it to the appropriate resource. I suggest looking into the Catilina dispatcher and uri parsing semantics I do not have time to fully debug this :( --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
