Thanks for the reply Christopher: The filter / URL rewrite works great on all versions, correct. I could certainly post my config but It works fine, so I am going to try to clarify what doesn't "work".
What I can't get to work in both versions is a link to a static resource. I have to feed the different generations of Tomcat different URL's to get the same asset in the same location in each container. http://localhost:8080/cms/resources/resources/css/gopublish.css Is needed in the pre 6.0.30.x version and http://localhost:8080/cms/resources/css/gopublish.css works just fine for the newer version Post 6.0.30.x What I don't know how to do is use that redirect filter/rewrite to change the url based on the version of tomcat, which it seems I need to do, since the container pathing logic changed across versions. Or, if there was a better way to find a singular path to put static resources within a webApp that would remain consistent (with respect to how to reference it), that exists, I could really use that... Thanks again guys, I hope that clarifies the issue.

This should work under all versions: it's just a servlet filter. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.17 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk/OqGoACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PA0hgCgqrO2mKdjpC9Kw/vAjfW3OOZv 1JsAoI2dT6Cg0+eOM9xgFGB56YZmevNM =sHhR -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
