And what if there was no request since the start but the watch list must fire? To me relying on a first request is really dangerous, also there are cases where ProxyPreserveHost is not accessible (I had the case of having just mod_rewrite and no mod_proxy). A hard solution is to install a URL factory that is absolute (i've published one here, it has too many things but has worked for me), another is to change de tomcat config if available. Paul
