Catch-All App
Hey folks,
I have a webapp at
http://www.myhost.com/foo
I'd like to configure a "catch-all" web application that will take all
requests for any context other than foo and have them handled by a single
jsp / servlet... so I can redirect them into the /foo webapp.
E.g. people who request
http://www.myhost.com/bar
http://www.myhost.com/stink
http://www.myhost.com/woohooo
... will go to a single JSP (or whatever I can use.. deployed as one webapp
hopefully).. where I can read the context off the URL and direct them
somewhere into my webapp...
Thanks!

What about just configuring a "global" 404 handler to direct to my JSP... but
I can't find where to configure a server-wide 404 handler. running

For my app, using deploy.bat, I removed the default app that ships with
Geronimo that squats on the context root at /. And then in my app, I
set the context root set at /. I suppose you could have a servlet that
just matches on * and then it would match everything at your context
root ...
I'm just making up the following, haven't tested it or anything, YMMV.
In your WAR, web.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app id="MyWebApp" version="2.4"

xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

Then in the EAR that contains the WAR, application.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<application id="MyApp" version="1.4"

Re: Catch-All App

One way is to use mod_rewrite in Apache.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /foo/index.jsp [L]
</IfModule>
Not sure so sure about how to do this with Tomcat.

Re: Catch-All App
Posted by Aaron Mulder <am...@alumni.princeton.edu>.
I think the best way to do this is, as someone else noted, to replace
the "welcome" application that ships with Geronimo. The application
assigned to "/" will receive requests to any path that a different
application doesn't cover, and you can assign a servlet to receive all
requests and redirect to or forward to your JSP.
Geronimo does something similar out of the box for the samples. We
have the welcome application listen on the path that each sample
should be bound to (e.g. /jsp-examples/* or whatever). If the sample
is installed and running and you go to that URL, the sample app will
receive the request. If that sample is not installed, the welcome app
will receive the request, download and install the sample, then
redirect to the same URL which will then end up going to the newly
installed sample instead.
Thanks,
Aaron
