Title: SV: response.sendRedirect problem

Hi Rafael,

 

I don't think Patrik's suggestion is the answer; you should be able to sendf ully-qualified URLs in redirects

(forwards, on the other hand, do need to be within the same serveri nstance).

 

I suggest that you try connecting to orion via telnet, to see exactly what isb eing sent back, ie

 

telnet your-orion-host your-orion-port (eg telnet localhost 8080)

GET /your-page-which-does-redirect (yes, in your case you might have to temporarily modify your code,

unless you can figure out how to simulate a POST).

 

One problem I have struck when using sendRedirect in jsp pages is that it is necessary to put a return

statement after the sendRedirect. Forgetting this may cause the page to output other stuff to the client

that prevents the redirect from happening.

 

Hope this helps,

 

Simon

Don't write a full URL In the sendRedirect(param) call. Use an URI instead. Do:

response.sendRedirect("/some/place/file.html");

instead of:

response.sendRedirect("http://host.domain:port/some/place/file.html");

Ämne: response.sendRedirect problem

Hi all,

this is the scenary: I have a 2 jsp pages and 2 servlet. The flow is:

pag1.jsp -->(via Post)-->
      -->servlet1 -->(via forward) -->
          -->servlet2 -->(via response.sendRedirect) -->
              --> pag2.jsp

when viewed using some browsers in Mac (IE and Netscape alike), the
redirect sends the url
http://hostname/servlet/servlet2/http//hostname/servlet/servlet2

and I got a 400 Bad Request Error, no matter which url I use in the
response.sendRedirect (as I recall, my last was "foobar/whatever")

On windows and unix browsers works fine.

Any ideas?
