I haven't been following this thread. Do you think you could submit a
patch for that page? That would help... :-)
Thanks

That would be a most elegant solution (either that or add a property
which ServletRedirector should be used for checking the 'up'-ness of the
servlet container).

OK.

:-) Thanks!
Okay I have read your patch (which looks very fine). However, I was
thinking that it could be even better if we fixed this limitation. What
if we modify the <cactifywar> task so that it add a ServletRedirector as
the first definition in web.xml? That would solve the problem, no?
I'll still add a note in the doc for users of Cactus < 1.6-[date when we
fix the pb]
Thanks

You didn't miss much; my previous 'patch' can be ignored.

I could guess that was coming back to me... ;-)
Attached (diffs against jakarta-cactus-src-1.6dev20040227).
