Re: Welcome file problem
Normally I forward to an default action from the page xy.de/myProjekt/index.jsp The index.jsp is in the Home directory and all other JSPs are located in a JSP directory which is protected. The home directory is not protected.

Re: Welcome file problem
Kishore, thanks a lot for your help. Interestingly, the problem was only that I had "/foo/index.html" instead of "foo/index.html" as my welcome file entry. After I removed the beginning forward slash as you suggested, it worked (without the need for the dummy file -- I did not encounter the 404). This is with Tomcat 5.0.27.

The work around is to have a dummy index.html file inside "foo" folder (for your setup, it's foo/index.html) so that the server is happy and it tries to serve foo/index.html but the request is instead served by the ActionServlet (/foo/*) and your /index.jsp will be shown. Note that the welcome-file should not start or end with a "/". Making your welcome-file to foo/index.html and have a dummy index.html inside foo folder should work Thanks, Erik - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Welcome file problem
I am restricting *.jsp in web.xml. ActionServlet is mapped to /foo/*. I would like to use a welcome file so that a URL of http://host:port/app will resolve to the index page.
