Uhh... you want the webapp to be available via SSI? I'm pretty sure that's the problem of whoever wants to use your service. You can't configure SSI on someone else's site. Maybe I'm misunderstanding you. > I have this working in a limited sense, in that I got it working using > the filter version but was unsuccessful getting the servlet version > working, which is acceptable.

Do http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/ssi-howto.html and http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/howto/ssi.html#basic count as non-existent?

You will have to use filter mapping in order to post-process your .jsp and other dynamic pages: a servlet can't be wrapped around another servlet (such as the JSPServlet, which you don't have to map yourself) for this kind of thing. So, stick with the filter. > Searches (lots of em!) on the internet have not provided me with an > answer, though I have gotten hints that it is doable.

What is the complete configuration for your <filter> and <filter-mapping> for the aforementioned filter? It should be as simple as setting up multiple <url-pattern>s for the URL patterns that you want to have run through the SSI filter. Note that you should be able to set up SSI in a single webapp instead of modifying the conf/web.xml file as described in the SSI documentation. I find this cleaner, as you will only end up making SSI available in a specific webapp instead of across all webapps deployed onto the server. The <filter-mapping> itself should definitely only be included in your webapp's META-INF/web.xml file. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkx+vFYACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PC4OwCdH4LC/EJ6BWOtTsTY+8/hkl5R 4iYAninNnCDU4foqXS+od3Z9LVTxJzmo =ceu5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
