http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32424 Summary: Redirecting directiories with missing trailing slash breaks web applications Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.0.28 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: Catalina AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >From version 5.0.4 to 5.0.5 the File org/apache/tomcat/util/http/mapper/Mapper.java was changed to redirect requests which matches a directory but have a missing trailing slash are redirected to the same url with the slash. This breaks some webapps because the redirect is also done for urls which are mapped to servlets. Example: A Servlet is mapped to /. The user calls /page which is handled by the servlet. If a direcory named "page" exists, tomcat redirects to /page/. This is fine for directory indexing but bad for complex applications.
