mod-webapp Bugs
Hey everybody, I'm running tomcat 4.0.1 under apache 1.3.22 through mod_webapp from webapp-module-1.0-tc40-linux-glibc2.2.tar.gz and I've noticed a couple of quirks in the way it's working. I'm wondering if these are bugs that will/should be corrected or they are the result of misconfigureation on my part. The first problem is that if I go to www.mydomain1.com/webapp-info or www.mydomain1.com/examples I get: Not Found The requested URL /examples was not found on this server. If I go to www.mydomain1.com/webapp-info/ or www.mydomain1.com/examples/ it works fine. That happens whether I include a trailing slash in the httpd.conf WebAppDeploy or not. (Examples from docs say not) The other, more serious problem is this. I can't authenticate to the protected areas of my ROOT app through mod-_webapp. I'm using form based login and a JDBC Realm on tomcat to protect one of the subdirectories. Everything works fine if I go directly to tomcat on port 8080, but if I go through apache the authentication fails every time. The 302 redirects work fine, it's just that no mater what username and password I use it acts like they're bad. They're not though. I can see them in the database and use them on port 8080. Any ideas what's going wrong or where I made a mistake? Are these known issues with this configureation? Here's my mod_webapp lines in httpd.conf. I hope somebody can give me a hand.

Re: mod-webapp Bugs
I can't help you but I can say that I have what sounds like a similar authentication failure when trying to access the manager app (http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/manager-howto.html). When I try to access the manager webapp the BASIC authentication dialog popped up, I entered the username and password but can never authenticate successfuly. I even had a colleague type the username/password in as a sanity check but no go.

Re: mod-webapp Bugs
We were having this same problem I believe and what we had to do (in linux) was make sure that the catalina.sh was started from the ~(home) directory - Original Message - From: Janek Bogucki [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Tomcat Users List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 18, 2001 6:12 PM Subject: Re: mod-webapp Bugs | I can't help you but I can say that I have what sounds | like a similar authentication failure when trying to | access the manager app | (http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/manager-howto.html). | | When I try to access the manager webapp the BASIC | authentication dialog popped up, I entered the | username and password but can never authenticate | successfuly.
