Context specific context.xml not loading.
Hello All,
Just came across a problem today. Hope someone will clarify it.
Tomcat 9.0.13.
I wanted to customize ErrorReportValve by setting showReport="false"
showServerInfo="false".
Below is the META-INF/context.xml -
<Context>
<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve"
showReport="false" showServerInfo="false" />
</Context>
It works fine for any internal server error produced or exceptions thrown.
But for the case when the browser sends unencoded characters the URL
becomes invalid and Exception is thrown and stacktrace is shown in the
browser.
When I give this valve in server.xml. It works fine. No issues. No
stacktrace is shown on the browser when sending unencoded characters. When
I give it in my context it fails only for this case.
Can anyone please help me on this.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Melvin A

Ryan Palmer,
CATALINA_BASE/conf/Catalina/localhost/ directory is empty. Also, I haven't
given any context in server.xml either.

Melvin,
Do you have any context.xml for this context in the CATALINA_BASE/conf/Catalina/localhost/ directory? It may be overriding your META-INF/context.xml

You are configuring the Valve on different elements. In server.xml you
are configuring it on the Host. In context.xml you are configuring it
for a single web application.
If the URL is invalid then the request will never be mapped to a web
application so the ErrorReportVlave on the default Host will be used.
