Igor Vaynberg resolved WICKET-3881.
-----------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

i dont think the path is bogus, i think its actually correct based on the servlet spec. this is a pretty well known issue, people who map wicket on /* should not have index.html or welcome files specified.

> Tomcat reports a bogus servletPath for a filter iff
> - welcome files are listed in web application of Tomcat's defaults
> - a welcome file exists (e.g. index.html)
> - a request comes in with an empty path
> Example:
> "/" results in servletPath "/index.html"
> See https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=50161 for a discussion.
> Due to the bogus servletPath redirects are failing. For a test you can run wicket-examples with SignApplication mapped to root:
> 	<filter-mapping>
> 		<filter-name>SignInApplication</filter-name>
> 		<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
>         <dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher>
>         <dispatcher>INCLUDE</dispatcher>
> 	</filter-mapping>
> The attached quickstart shows a possible workaround, see attached patch.
