This is pretty mysterious. If your database and Tomcat configurations
are the same, then I cannot understand why the OS would make any
difference.

That horrible exception just means that Roller has returned a 404 (and
yes, I know, 404s should not cause such exceptions -- I'm working on
fixing that now).

I have the same problem and solved it using the command:
Jkoptions +ForwardURIEscaped
on the mod_jk.conf.

[OT] apache front for roller (was: roller 3.1 posts links system problem)
Posted by Guy Katz <gk...@allot.com>.
Hi;
Well it turned out that the problem was that the apache front end was
configured in a way that impacted the URI such that when it got to
roller is was different (thanks to roller debug for the conclusion).
As I need all the help I can get. I would like to hear if someone had
the same difficulties deploying roller 3.1 new post URLs system and
maybe can share his solutions and ideas with me.
I have posted a question to tomcat mailing list that describes my
problem. Here it is (any feedback would be great):
Hi; (using: centos, apache 2.0.52, mod_jk 1.2.21, tomcat 6)
Recently, I encountered a problem with URIs that has 'non western
European' characters (for example:
http://www.somehost.com/roller/admin/entry/nofx_%D7%91%D7%93%D7%A8%D7%9A
). I noticed that apache was forwarding to tomcat a different URI than
the original which caused problems in my site.
Digging into the subject I found the JkOptions +ForwardURICompatUnparsed
fixed my problem. However, I then encountered a different problem then.
On the first hit, some images were not displayed in the browser (not
served to it). So I checked the forums and found out about the
JkStripSession. I figured it might help so I turned it on but nothing
happened.
My questions are:
Should the JkStripSession help in this case? Was there a known bug in my
apache/mod_jk versions related to this (couldn't find in bugzilla)?
How should I solve this? The only thing I need is to be able to forward
URIs with 'special characters' as is to tomcat for a specific
application (context)
I am really out of my element here so I would appreciate your help
greatly.
Thanks in advance

The configuration I thought would work but had the image loading
problem:
JkMount /* ajp13
JkStripSession On
JkOptions +ForwardURICompatUnparsed

My next step is to put a clean roller 3.1 install (not an upgraded one)
and see if I get the same problem
I will send an update then.
Thanks for the help.
