Can you perhaps write a little servlet that forwards a request to a new address (a string defined in the web.xml) and then map the servlet to the url pattern you want.
i.e. url pattern for servlet /COLANgamma/* then the servlet takes the request string (whatever is after the url pattern for the servlet) "index.html" and adds it to the url-prefix string which can be defined in the web.xml "/opencms/opencms/COLANgamma/" so it ends up redirecting to "/opencms/opencms/opencms/COLANgamma/" + "index.html" Hamish > -----Original Message----- > From: Alexander Schmidt [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Sunday, August 25, 2002 3:05 PM > To: Tomcat Users List > Subject: Redirects by TOMCAT in server.xml? > > > Hi! > I will explain my problem better! > I have an application opencms.
