Wicket renders *relative* URLs leading with '../' in CSS, image links (and possibly anchors). However, in this case the problem is with absolute URLs containing '/../'. Those are created during redirects only because:
- wicket issues a redirect to a *relative* url starting with '../' - Tomcat, before writing out a response, rewrites the URL as absolute - w/o collapsing the path. See encodeRedirectURL here: http://kickjava.com/src/org/apache/catalina/connector/Response.java.htm I'll take a stab at collapsing the URL in HttpSamplerBase.followRedirects(HTTPSampleResult, int) -nikita On Wed, Apr 7, 2010 at 10:53 AM, sebb <[email protected]> wrote: > On 07/04/2010, Nikita Tovstoles <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hello, > > > > I need JMeter to rewrite absolute URLs containing '/../' For example, > major > > browsers & wget, given: > > > > http://www.google.com/products/ . . / products > > (spaces added to avoid SPAM filtering) > > > > will actually send HTTP GET for > > > > http://www.google.com/products/ > > > > JMeter 2.3.4 appears to send the initial URL verbatim, which results in > a > > 404 if pointed against a vanilla Tomcat. > > > > We're using Wicket and URLs similar to the above are very common (Wicket > > issues redirects like the above).
