> And what is strange here? Apache recognized www.mydomain.com as an alias fo a sort and issued a redirect to what he considered to be the real URL. What is strange here is that this did not happen before I upgraded to mod_webapp. Also, when you have many domain names pointing to the same IP address, you do not want all of them to be redirected. For example, if a user inputs http://www.mydomain2.com in his browser address window, we dont want the address to be changed to 123.45.67.89. >> If I change the ServerName in httpd.conf to www.mydomain.com >> <http://www.mydomain.com> , then the opposite happens (that is, if I >> point the browser to 123.45.67.89 I get redirected to >> www.mydomain.com/index.jsp <http://www.mydomain.com/index.jsp> ). > Yup. Here I am showing that this problem is directly connected to the value of the ServerName. It seems that mod_webapp redirects all requests to the ServerName. >> Now the strange thing is, that if I type the full path (with the >> "/index.jsp" at the end), then no redirection occurs. > Of course not. If you type http://www.mydomain.com/ you shouldn't see redirection. You're getting redirected because of that last slash in the URL and it is normal for Apache and web servers in general. That's where you are wrong my friend...again. A slash at the end IS NOT SUFFICIENT. I have to type THE FULL PATH to not be redirected. >> This is a problem for me because I have multiple domain names pointing >> to the IP address, and the user is always redirected to the IP >> address, which is unacceptable. > And have you defined multiple VirtualHost-s? Of course you haven't. Read Apache docs on Virtual Hosts. > Nix. Once again, you are wrong. I have tried defining VirtualHosts, and that worked partly, but that is not an acceptable solution for me. Let me explain why. My webapp displays different content depending on the hostname, and one of the requirements for the webapp is that when more domain names are added (all pointing to the same IP address), no configuration or restart should have to be done in Apache or Tomcat. You should just have to tell the webapp to recognize it.
