Dear Chuck. I tried to implement #2 as you suggested, using urlrewrite as in http://tuckey.org/urlrewrite/manual/2.6 Under "Install" I see on STEP 1: “Download the zip (or tar.gz) and extract it into your context'sdirectory ie, so that urlrewrite.xml goes into the WEB-INF directory”.
However, looking into my file directory I found 6 WEB-INF directories: C:\Archivos de programa\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\ROOT C:\Archivos de programa\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\tomcat-docs C:\Archivos de programa\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\server\webapps\admin C:\Archivos de programa\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\server\webapps\host-manager C:\Archivos de programa\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\server\webapps\manager C:\Archivos de programa\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\tomcat-docs\appdev\sample\web In which one should I extract the zip file into? Thanks and regards. Rodrigo.
