Ok then.

In future it would be really helpful if default-changes would be
announce via changelog or similar in the package. Because the default
behavior
changes (keyword: backward compatibility) I think many other
installations will break without the admins knowledge.

Veit

 Did an apt-get upgrade this evening with the effect that my apache2 
 rewriting with mod-jk for
 tomcat doesn't work out anymore. I'm using this simple rewriting rule:

 RewriteEngine on
 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} 
 !^/(iurltoexcludefromtomcat|urltoexcludefromtomcat2)
 RewriteRule ^/(.*) /mytomcatcontext/$1 [PT]

 Which rewrites all access to /foo to /mytomcatcontext/foo. This doesn't work 
 out anymore.
 Instead of going to the /mytomcatcontext/foo, just /foo in tomcat is 
 requested.

 Took me a couple of hours to figure this out since _some_ packages changed 
 regarding
 apache2 :(...

 Downgrading to 1.2.18-3 fixes the issue for me.
 

 The only change from 1.2.18-3 to 1.2.18-3etch1 was the change of the
 default for URI forwarding (from apache httpd to apache tomcat). This
 was made due to CVE-2007-1860. To get the old behavior use

   JkOptions +ForwardURICompat

 But beware. Thats a security risk. Please read the documentation at

   http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/reference/apache.html#Forwarding

 for more infos.

 Closing this bug as its not a bug.


 Cheers,
 Michael

Hi again.

 The only change from 1.2.18-3 to 1.2.18-3etch1 was the change of the
 default for URI forwarding (from apache httpd to apache tomcat). This
 was made due to CVE-2007-1860. To get the old behavior use

Actually that doesn't work out. Tried it with the same effect that
forwarding breaks.

Veit
