Actually that FAQ entry results in the entire URL namespace being mapped
to the servlet. That isn't what I think the original requestor wanted
(at least it isn't what I want). I want just the top level (i.e.
http://host) initial page mapped to a servlet, but not the entire
namespace. So that http://host calls my servlet, but http://host/xxx
gets the file xxx.
The FAQ entry you mention has the following suggestion for the
httpd.conf:
LoadModule rewrite_module modules/ApacheModuleRewrite.dll
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/(.*) /myZone/slash?data=$1 [PT]
</IfModule>
This RewriteRule maps the entire namespace to the servlet
/myZone/slash. I have played around with various RewriteRules and can't
find a way to avoid mapping the entire namespace. So I have ended up
using a redirect (which isn't a very performant solution).
