Re: Forms Authentication

I too need to access login page directly because, of Apache redirection
to Tomcat, cannot find the login page directly.

Let's say, main_page.htm is a secure page. Typing the url
'http://localhost/webapplication/main_page.htm' should bring up the login
page.  But it just gives me 'Error 500, The page cannot be displayed'.

   So, have to access login page directly, as it authenticates your login,
but will give error 'Indirect referece to j_security_check'

   So, how do I implementss JDBC realms when Apache redirection to Tomcat is
involved.

Apache redirection to Tomcat, but with JDBC security realms

[Tang Wern Chait]

Has anyone tried Apache redirection to Tomcat, on Java code that makes uses of 
JDBD security realms?

Assuming the redirection from Apache to Tomcat works fine when I type 
'http://localhost/examples/servlets/index.html'

But for my own code, I include url 'alerts.do' inside security realm.  Typing the 
url will bring user to page 'login.jsp'.  This works fine if I type 
'http:8080//localhost/rms/alerts.do'.  

But if I try redirection by typing 'http://localhost/rms/alerts.do', I get error 
page "The page cannot be displayed"

Obviously, Apache redirection tries to find page 'alerts.do' instead of 
'login.jsp'.

How, can I rectify this problem?
