           Summary: uriworkermap redirections do not work properly
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: 5.0.0
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Windows Server 2003
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: Connector:AJP
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: nags@bsg.co.uk


The following are my uriworkermap.properties:

/supplement/*=supplement
/main/*=main
/*/=main


What this does is:

- any URL with 'supplement' goes to the tomcat instance serving supplement pages
- any URL with 'main' goes to the main instance
- any URL with '/' ending the query string goes to the main instance.

The above set of rules does not fully satisfy all the requirements.

What we additionally need is a default redirection.. if none of the 
3 mappings, the request should be redirected to the 'main' worker as well.

I thought this could be done my modifying the last line of the uriworkermap
to this:

/*=main

But when this is done, all requests go to the main tomcat instance. 
The /supplement/ is completelely ignored.

Also, having a trailing '/' to make something work will not satisfy 
all the URLs that might come to the site.

For instance the following URL will work:

http://mysite.com/10.1108/21992840238402/

but this will not

http://mysite/10.1108/21992840238402

This is quite restrictive. And I feel this is a bug in the latest release of 
the isapi redirector. ( Version 1.2.10) 

[Note: This functionality was available in the mod-jk2 version, but now that 
that is de-supported, we are trying to migrate to JK.. but are coming up 
against this limitation].

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best Regards,
Nags.
