Hello,
i am running apache-tomcat-5.5.15 on a FC4 box
First i need to explain a little how my site is set up..
We have 1000's of users that have their own document directory
So for example a users URL is http://www.mydomain.com/randy
their document root is /home/users/r/randy
as another example http://www.mydomain.com/fred would be
their doc root would be /home/users/f/fred
currently they go to http://www.mydomain.com/fred/index.html and i
want to replace index.html with index.jsp
So if i do http://www.mydomain.com/fred/index.jsp , i get:
404 - message /fred/index.jsp
description The requested resource (/fred/index.jsp) is not available.
i do not want my users to have to do http://www.mydomain.com/f/fred/index.jsp
I did find an article that suggested making sure to load mod_jk before
mod_rewrite
Are you only talking about mod_jk, because it was in the article? mod_jk
is used to connect Apache httpd to Tomcat. I didn't see httpd mentioned
above. So if you don't use it, I expect that you find a solution to your
problem without introducing it here.
The term on the Tomcat side is the welcome file list (element
welcome-file-list in web.xml). It's a standardized terminology for Java
webapps.
Talking about welcome files (like index.html or index.jsp) you need to
distinguish between the URLs the user should know/use/send, and the
local objects that actually get send back.
If you use welcome files like index.html or index.jsp, then usually the
URL the user send does not include it and magically he gets back the
file instead of a directory index or an error page. He could call the
welcome file directly with a URL, but then it's just used as a simple
file like all others.
S which URLs should your users be able to send, and which file should
they get back? And what does already work, and what should work after
fixing your problem?
Regards,
Rainer
But i am not sure what else i Need to do
Any Suggestions? or is this even possible?
Thanks
Randy
