Preventing directory listings in WebApplication

2005-01-10 Thread Paul Taylor
Hi
How exactly do I stop the user going into directory containing jsps and 
listing all the jsps within it as a directory listing. I dont mind them 
specifying a particular jsp and going straight to that but I would / to 
map to the default page for the particular some section.

i.e
myapp/section1
i want go to myapp/section1/start.jsp
myapp/section2
i want go to myapp/section2/start.jsp
I guess its something to do with mappings the applications in web.xml 
but I cant get it working.

There are two ways to do that:
1. Turn off the directory listing in one of the configuration file. But I
cannot remember which one off the top of my head.
2. Put an index.jsp with a generic message in each folder.

Hope this helps.

Just before the error page listings in your application's web.xml file.

   4305
   4306   welcome-file-list id=WelcomeFileList_1
   4307   welcome-fileindex.html/welcome-file
   4308   welcome-fileindex.jsp/welcome-file
   4308   welcome-filestart.jsp/welcome-file -
   4309/welcome-file-list
   4310 !--

 Are these exclusive options. I can disable the listings but cant get the

 Should the default pages go in the applications web.xml or Tomcats main

Re: Preventing directory listings in WebApplication

Ok Ive realised what I was doing wrong I was listing a file on each 
directory
as follows

welcome-file-list id=WelcomeFileList_1
  welcome-filesection1/start.jsp/welcome-file
  welcome-filesection2/start.jsp/welcome-file
/welcome-file-list
when i just needed to specify the file 

Also you can use it in conjunction with listing =false which I need because 
some directories do not have a suitable default.
