http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31202 Allow customization of the X-Powered-By header Summary: Allow customization of the X-Powered-By header Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.0.28 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: Other Component: Connector:Coyote AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Section 5.2 of the Servlet 2.4 spec contains the following comment regarding the X-Powered-By header: <quote> It is recommended that containers use the X-Powered-By HTTP header to publish its implementation information. The field value should consist of one or more implementation types, such as "Servlet/2.4". Optionally, the supplementary information of the container and the underlying Java platform can be added after the implementation type within parentheses. The container should be configurable to suppress this header. Here’s the examples of this header. X-Powered-By: Servlet/2.4 X-Powered-By: Servlet/2.4 JSP/2.0 (Tomcat/5.0 JRE/1.4.1) </quote> Currently the connector only supports a boolean XpoweredBy attribute that when enabled adds the hard coded "Servlet/2.4" value. There should be an XpoweredByString or some such to allow the value of this header to be externalized to the connector configuration. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
