Re: Module and pages Behind WEB-INF don't work...???





I don't have the exact fix you are looking for, but this (in web.xml)
will prevent direct access to anything with a jsp extension:

<security-constraint>
                <web-resource-collection>
                                 <web-resource-name>no_access</web-resource-name>
                                 <url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
                </web-resource-collection>
                <auth-constraint/>
</security-constraint>
