Category: core Group: 1.2 Status: Open Priority: 5 Submitted By: Alastair Maw (almaw) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Proxying breaks because ContextPath is included in links Initial Comment: This is currently blocking deployment on our live systems, so for me, it's a critical bug. Wicket constructs its href/link URLs to be absolute by using the context path, typically like so: getContextPath() + '/' + getRelativeURL(); So form actions, link hrefs, etc. look like this: "/contextPath/wicketServlet?params=foo" If you're hiding your webapp behind a front-end proxy server, so that... appName.domain.com/ -> server.domain.com/contextPath/ ...then this breaks things badly. For my old JSP-based stuff, I just make all the URLs relative, and everything just works. For top level template includes, which need to work on all pages no matter the depth, I'd set a response param to tell the include what depth level I was at, and it'd insert some "../"s appropriately. Not very pretty, but simple and it works. There are two ways to fix this: 1) Make the context path configurable in the ApplicationSettings (and make Wicket cope with empty ones elegantly so that it doesn't put in double // at the start of the href). 2) Make all the URLs in wicket relative. Option 2 is nicest, because then you don't have to configure anything, but is probably quite a lot of work, particularly for cached markup for image src="" links, etc. Option 1 would presumably be fairly easy to achieve? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=684978&aid=1433735&group_id=119783 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
