Well, you only have the problem if you wish to test for returned error
codes like 40x. But for all other tests you don't need the trailing "/".
BTW, it seems a trailing "/" confuses a lot of containers so I would
suggest you remove it (It has been dropped in Cactus 1.3 for that
reason).

No, I don't think so it really is (maybe it is I don't remember).

Bottom line : don't put a trailing "/" in cactus.properties nor in your
web.xml mappings. If you're using Cactus 1.2, one of the samples will
fail but that's normal. This test has been removed in Cactus 1.3 until
we find a better solution (which involves using HttpClient instead of
HttpURLConnection but we haven't done it yet).

Sorry for the confusion.
