Could that be the problem? | To do the redirect I'm using the following: | response.sendRedirect(response.encodeRedirectURL("<aPage>.jsp")); It's always a good idea to use fully-qualified URLs when doing redirects - -- at least, a redirect that starts with '/' if you are staying within the same domain name. I would code this like this: response.sendRedirect(response.encodeRedirectURL(request.getContextPath() + "/<aPage>.jsp")); This will work even when you change the context path, which is nice. Hope that helps a bit, - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkihn2oACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PA1CgCgmW/A1l1ImcW2Slpy0S0fb128 hL4AoIHlQoMoxj4vCKKk4+cWLWE25rp5 =vSNd -----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]
