Or, rather, you need to stop hard-coding the /context path/. If you are using straight-up JSP, you need to do this to all your URLs: Change: <a href="/foo/logout.jsp"> To this: <a href="<%= request.getContextPath() %>/logout.jsp"> While you're at it, you should be doing this: <a href="<%= request.getContextPath() %> <%= response.encodeURL("/logout.jsp") %>"> This allows the container to encode the user's session id into the URL so that users without cookies can still use sessions through your app. Another option is to use one of the dozen or so competing tag libraries to generate URLs for you. You generally do something like this: <taglib:link href="/logout.jsp">log out</taglib:link> ...or something along those lines, and you get a link that uses the correct context path (which could even be the root) and properly encodes the URL for session-id tracking, too. I know (or think I know?) that JSF, Struts, and a handful of other tag libraries exist to do this stuff for you. If you are using something other than JSP, you can use similar direct-use of the API or similar tools (for instance, Velocity has Velocity-tools, which can do all this, too). - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFF/1D39CaO5/Lv0PARAuQBAJ9V9+K7X90QHmUK/G8lPKLkpaWEOACfb2Zp 9IkdsowRkxWspRjEXbnTq0s= =GFR/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
