We have a server that handles authentication and logging for client file
downloads. Our clients are (charitably) less-than-knowledgable. To allow
"save as" right click functionality, the url on the constructed links are
like this:
http://host/app/servlet/Controller/FileNameToUse.foo?a=dw&; ....
where "FileNameToUser.foo" causes the save-as dialog to get the right
file name, and the query params are used to route through the server to
check authentication and log the download. (I know, but I inherited it)
This works fine under Tomcat 3.*, but Tomcat 4.1.12 refuses to co-operate.
The download action is not called. If the url is changed to
http://host/app/servlet/Controller?a=dw&; ....
it gets the file ok, but the filename in the save-as dialog is not set
correctly, and we could NEVER expect our clients to get that right.
So:
1. Am I missing something in the config of 4.* that's blocking this
functionality?
or
2. Is there another way to "force" the filename on the download
output stream?
