Re: URL rewriting ignored for "/whatever" context path; broken for "/" context path

[Ludovic Maitre <Lu...@sophia.inria.fr>]

Hello,

The only solution i had find is to replicate all my "url-rewrited"
folder as context in Tomcat and additionnaly make 
a few patchs on Tomcat (and Cocoon). 

It seems, after reading the source code of mod_jserv (that i use), that
the request form Apache to Tomcat is redirected AFTER the
URI-to-filename translation in Apache. It's AFAIK a limitation of apache
1.* who will be removed in Apache 2.* where a lot of hooks are added to
Apache.

Please if i'm wrong give some answer to this mail,

Regards,

Ludovic 

PS : Has somebody tested Catalina/tomcat 4 with Apache and mod_rewrite ?
