Hi,

try removing the [R] from your RewriteRule. If you read up on the mod_rewrite docs, you should see that the [R] flag is causing the redirect.

I'm currently using Tomcat 4.

When someone goes to my site, say, www.site.com, I'd like it run a servlet for the home page instead of a static page (my entire site is
dynamic).


I configured the connector to send all *.htm files to Tomcat and I created a re-write rule in the Apache configuration file like this:

  RewriteEngine on
  RewriteRule ^/$ /home.htm [R]

This works great, EXCEPT, that the browser is sent a redirect and I heard that is bad for search engines.

I could send *all* http requests to tomcat, BUT, obviously, I DON'T want Tomcat serving up images.

So, is there any way to configure Apache and/or Tomcat to make:

  www.site.com ---run--> www.site.com/home.htm

without a redirect?

How do I get www.site.com requests to go to Tomcat???
