Hey all,
Firstly - I'm still not a programmer; I just admin the machines.
I've recently implemented JServ on a development webserver - the
production box is running JRun, and I feel this is an improvement.
The devel server is about to go into production, but there's one
niggling bug that's holding us back, and I was hoping that someone may
be able to shed some light on it for me.
One of the servlets we run does a database connection and reads
information - pretty basic, but it's slightly sensitive data, so we
require the user to login first. This goes well, from a main page form
that does a POST to a servlet. The servlet (wv_checkAccount) checks the
username and password, and does a redirect to the servlet that actually
serves out the information. The code looks like this:
<SNIPPIT>
...
sess.putValue("HolderName", HolderName);
sess.putValue("CompanyName", CompanyName);
sess.putValue("MeetingInfo", MeetingInfo);
sess.putValue("BlankMgmt", BlankMgmt);
sess.putValue("BlankDis", BlankDis);
res.sendRedirect("http://sam.stocktronics.com/servlets/wv_display");
}
} catch (Exception e) {
out.println("** Error ** " + e.getMessage());
}
}
}
private boolean OpenFiles() throws ServletException, IOException {
boolean Ok = true;
int i;
int t;
out.println("<html><head><title>WebVote</title></head><body bgcolor=");
out.println("\"#FFFFFF\"><table cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" ");
out.println("border=\"0\"><tr><td width=\"5\" height=\"9\" valign=");
out.println("\"top\"></td><td width=\"120\" height=\"400\" rowspan=");
...
</SNIPPIT>
(etc, etc, etc - cut for brevity)
Below this line,
According to our coders, this servlet should authenticate, then this
line should redirect them to the actual servlet - however, the redirect
simply isn't happening. Everything else in the code works, up to and
including the html output - but for some reason, the redirect just
doesn't happen.
Any ideas on this? Is this simply something I'm missing? I don't
code, as a rule, but I can usually read code and spot errors - and this
looks ok to me.
Cheers,
- Drew.
