By the time it has gotten to your Filter, Tomcat has already decided on which Servlet will serve the request (and it is too late to change it's mind :). You need to do something like: String oldURI = unWritePath(request.getServletPath()+request.getPathInfo()); RequestDispatcher rd = getServletContext().getRequestDispacher(oldURI); rd.forward(request, response); return;
"Mailing Listen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I have written a filter for my webapp where i catch the response and Rewrite all URLs with a timestamp for bypassing some proxies that ignore The settings i set on my webserver (e.g. no-cache, no-store,...). The Filter works fine, but i haveto modify the requests when the reache my webserver. I am able to do this, but this only works if i the servlets i access are mapped in the web.xml of tomcat in the conf directory. The servlets that are mapped within the web.xmnl in the current context are not found. For explaining my problem a little more here an example: I have a URL like /myjsp.jsp I rewrite ist with /myjsp_<timstamp_in_millis>.jsp (<timstamp_in_millis> is the current timestamp) I filter this to /myjsp.jsp if the user requests the rewritten URL For .jsps that are mapped in the conf/web.xml file (by the default jsp servlet) anything works But i have some more servlet and some special jsp mappings that are mapped within the context and here i recieve an 404 although the servlet pathe and the URI are set correctly.
