As far as I can tell, Tomcat 3.2.1 *is* doing a redirect. Two things draw me to this conclusion:
1. The squid log appears to indicate a GET... ---snip--- 2001/12/19 10:58:24| The request GET http://cp1105:8080/ is ALLOWED, because it matched 'all' 2001/12/19 10:58:24| carpSelectParent: CARP Calculating hash for http://cp1105.vega.co.uk:8080/ 2001/12/19 10:58:24| fwdServerClosed: FD 13 http://cp1105.vega.co.uk:8080/ 2001/12/19 10:58:24| The request GET http://cp1105.vega.co.uk:8080/index.html is ALLOWED, because it matched 'all' 2001/12/19 10:58:24| The request GET http://cp1105.vega.co.uk:8080/tomcat.gif is ALLOWED, because it matched 'all' 2001/12/19 10:58:24| The request GET http://cp1105.vega.co.uk:8080/tomcat-power.gif is ALLOWED, because it matched 'all'---snip--- 2. The browser address box shows http://cp1105.vega.co.uk:8080/index.html even though index.html was not explicitly asked for. Just incase there are any squid experts out there, here is the squid log I get for the failed Tomcat4 behaviour... ---snip--- 2001/12/19 11:13:24| The request GET http://cp1105:8000/ is ALLOWED, because it matched 'all' 2001/12/19 11:13:24| carpSelectParent: CARP Calculating hash for http://cp1105.vega.co.uk:8000/ 2001/12/19 11:13:24| fwdServerClosed: FD 10 http://cp1105.vega.co.uk:8000/ ---snip--- I don't know the difference between FD13 and FD10 but clearly the two Tomcats are behaving differently.

Tomcat 4 sends a HTTP redirect to the file. That might explain the cause for your symtoms. Why that confuses your squid in not clear to me. Your description sounds as if the squid doesn't forward the redirect response to the browser. -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Troubles with the list: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
