YES, that worked. Sort of. Root URL is not found, but if pulled up as Index, no mo [ERROR]. Specifically,
http://localhost:8080/newapp/ leads to HTTP 404 error - page not found However, http://localhost:8080/newapp/Index works (?!)

Guess what, it does...! ) (**) This contradicts (*) - I think we just discovered that this may not be working as advertised in (and probably not just in) Tomcat 7...unless configured to ignore welcome file list as advised. Basically, the root URL is not pulling up Index (first/before other resources)...and Tapestry is AMBIGUOUS about the precedence - at least in the manual. One would think the simplest fix would be to put an index.jsp in the newapp folder with a jsp forward to Index, as follows: <jsp:forward page="/Index" /> But, sure enough, that does NOT work...would be too easy ;-). Nevertheless, good work. This has been fun. Yes, the JIRA 1904 may be closed...with the proper explanation of the workaround (as you guys see fit). -- View this message in context: http://tapestry.1045711.n5.nabble.com/Tomcat-7-deployment-TapestryModule-RequestExceptionHandler-Processing-of-request-failed-with-uncaugh-tp5637647p5638049.html Sent from the Tapestry - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tapestry.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tapestry.apache.org
