Hello, As the subject says, we have a problem with Tomcat 5.0 (5.0.27 through 5.0.30 to be precise) where a servlet invoked from tomcat5 does NOT send a www-authenticate header back, resulting in a definitive 401 error. This violates RFC 2616 (paragraph 14.47). As we suspected Apache first, I shut it down, activated the Coyote HTTP/1.1 connector of Tomcat, pointed the web browser to the 8080 port of the machine... But the result is the same. It occurs regardless of the presence of a proxy inbetween or not FWIW. The biggest problem is that I don't have the slightest idea at where to start... Only thing is I can show these exerpts from the WEB-INF/web.xml of our webapp: ------ <servlet> <servlet-name>content</servlet-name> <servlet-class>com.one2team.one2web.repository.ShowDocumentContent</servlet-class> </servlet> [...] <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>content</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/servlet/ShowDocumentContent</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> ------ And that's it, really... Any ideas? I've long run short of them myself :( Merry Christmas BTW, and thanks in advance for your help, -- Francis Galiegue, [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] One2team - 12bis rue de la Pierre Levée, 75011 Paris - 0143381980 "When it comes to performance, weight is everything" - Tiff Needell -- Francis Galiegue, [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] One2team - 12bis rue de la Pierre Levée, 75011 Paris - 0143381980 "When it comes to performance, weight is everything" - Tiff Needell --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
