Paul McMahan commented on GERONIMO-2841:
----------------------------------------
I am past the error shown above now and can run the testcase. After looking
further into this I don't have high hopes of a simple solution for this.
According to tomcat's svn logs the configuration option was purposely removed
in order to guarantee spec compliant behavior. i.e. section 9.10 of the 2.4
servlet spec says when an http client makes a request using the context path
without the trailing slash that the server should redirect the client to make
the same request using a trailing slash. */foo* gets redirected to */foo/*
The options that I can think of (in order of preference) are:
# try to override or somehow avoid the behavior in tomcat for contexts
associated with web services. I'm just about out of ideas for this though.
# rearchitect the web service support in the Tomcat assembly to create a
servlet for each web service instead of a context. this would require
significant effort and be inconsistent with the jetty assembly.
# leave the current design in place with its limitations and expect the WS
client to use POST instead of GET when its original POST is redirected
# ask Tomcat to provide a configuration option to reenable the non spec
compliant behavior
> Valve reports request method as GET even though POST request was made
