Thanks Craig, I posted a similar question recently asking whether it was possible to have different settings for the "default" servlet (per-context settings). For example, in some contexts, I'd like to see directory listings, in others, I'd prefer not to.
I tried overriding the default servlet, but this always threw ServletExceptions in TC4.0.1 (didn't like multiple servlets sharing the same name between global web.xml and context-specific web.xml, but always seemed to resort to global default servlet if I used a different <servlet-name> for the default servlet in the context-specific web.xml). Obviously I could write a directory-listing servlet myself if I disabled the directory listing feature globally, but I'd have problems with other static resources. I don't really understand how conflicting url mappings are handled between global and context configs either... Thanks Chris B ----- Original Message ----- From: "Craig R.
