Kevin, I think the same. That's why I'm trying to find now if it is a Websphere bug. I have checked on WAS 4.0.2 and WAS 5.0 and it did not work on any of them.
I have checked the spec and this is what it says related to mappings (following the DTD, section 11.2 is applicable for url-pattern): ------ from the spec ----- In the web application deployment descriptor, the following syntax is used to define mappings: - A string beginning with a '/' character and ending with a '/*' postfix is used for path mapping. - A string beginning with a '*.' prefix is used as an extension mapping. - A string containing only the '/' character indicates the "default" servlet of the application. In this case the servlet path is the request URI minus the context path and the path info is null. - All other strings are used for exact matches only. ------ from the spec ----- I'll post a solution if I can find it :-) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kevin Ross" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <xindice-users@xml.apache.org> Sent: Saturday, June 28, 2003 12:28 AM Subject: RE: Xindice in Websphere anyone? > I believe the pattern matching is part of the servlet spec, and the > web.xml conforms to that.
