I don't think that "Tomcat-Standalone" means what it looks like it should mean, if you know what I mean ;-)

Standalone then? :-\

Yes, specific to a Tomcat issue, but the solution incorporates Apache. :)

Oh. :(
But this was actually a solution offered specific to a Tomcat issue:
Issue: Unlike Apache, tomcat automatically redirects to the
welcome page,
rather than forwarding. In other words, to present the
welcome page tomcat
will literally redirect (http 302) to www.xyz.com/index.html,
rather than
staying at www.xyz.com. I do not want this effect as I am
affraid it will
have negative effects on my search engine placement.
I was given the advice to use a RewriteRule to fix this problem.
If this is not the solution, does anyone know what the
solution is? I was
told this is actually a "feature" of tomcat ... I call it a
PAIN IN THE ASS,
and a serious oversight for standalone Tomcat.
Anyone know a solution?
Thanks.

Beat me with a stick if I'm wrong, but RewriteRule is for
Apache when using
mod_rewrite, I don't think you can use it in server.xml or web.xml.

What exaclty is a RewriteRule and how is it used with
Standalone Tomcat? Do
I define my RewriteRules somewhere in server.xml or web.xml?
A couple of months ago, Noel told me how I could get Tomcat
to show the
content of the default welcome page without redirecting (http
302) to the
file, using a RewriteRule. I took notes from that email and
set it aside
only to realize when I returned ... that I have no idea what
to do with this
info! And of course no info is available (that I could find)
online or in
the Tomcat manual explaining this. :(
Could someone please explain how this RewriteRule would be
integrated into
Tomcat:
RewriteRule ^/$ /index.html [L]
Thanks!
