Re: How to determine absolute URL of a mounted page?
If you virtual host in apache on a server (local ip 10.0.0.1)
so
www.mydomain.com/
is virtual hosted by a tomcat server on a local network (10.0.0.2)
10.0.0.2:8080/myapp1context
and you do a request to apach
it will rewrite the url and give it to tomcat
Then the request url is really
http://10.0.0.2:8080/myapp1context/XX
this pdf also explains it a bit:

Re: How to determine absolute URL of a mounted page?
sounds okay, but is it really necessary? can you explain why?
i always thought the browser would send the full request URL.
in fact, i've had tomcat behind apache and this just works.

Can we then make something where we ask some setting first for the
host part? If not found we generate from the current request, which i
think for many many production environments will not really work
because who doesnt virtualhost or puts apache in front of it?

Re: How to determine absolute URL of a mounted page?
yeah, wicket should be able to find the base url of your application. i've had to do this in a couple of projects by hand. /unfortunately/ i don't think there's any container-independent way of doing this until a first request has come in for processing. before that point in time, it seems like the absolute url to everything is actually undefined. or maybe there's something i don't know yet... ?

I'm trying to accomplish the same thing and think that wicket should provide such an API. all of the "issues" mentioned are well known issues and other web frameworks still provide an API and just acknowledge the limitations. This is pretty important for me as I can't necessarily "hardcode" the url when the application runs in several different environments (production vs development for example). please vote for this JIRA issue and hopefully we can get some kind of API added. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-609 On Nov 23, 2007 7:03 PM, Oliver Lieven <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi Sebastiaan, > > thanks for your answer.

Re: How to determine absolute URL of a mounted page?
What's wrong with putting this in a configuration file or just a constant. Because in general this does not really work. For example, your web server may be behind a proxy or firewall, it may be clustered (and thus you have many machines instead of just one and they can't all have the same hostname), they may be running on a port > 1024 because of security concerns, with the firewall redirecting traffic on port 80 to the webserver. Personally I use spring and generally put the hostname/port combination in a properties file which spring uses to inject it into the application class.
