Problem with POST to default jsp page
I'm having a problem posting to the default page of my site, index.jsp (set with
DirectoryIndex in http.conf), when I don't explicitly reference the page. I
receive the error:
"HTTP method POST is not supported by this URL"
All of the following do work:
http://mymachine/
http://mymachine/index.jsp?foo=bar
http://mymachine/?foo=bar
as well as posting "foo=bar" to:
http://mymachine/index.jsp
the problem occurs when I post "foo=bar" to:
http://mymachine/
Any ideas?
My machine specifics:
RH Linux 6.1
Apache 1.3.9
Tomcat 3.0
Sun JDK 1.2.2
Thanks,
-- Jonathan.

Actually, looking at the generated .java file, it's using the _jspService
method. But I added the code you recommended, and no luck. This didn't
surprise me, b/c I _can_ successfully post to index.jsp, as long as i explicitly
reference it in the url. It's only when I attempt to post to http://mymachine/
that i receive a problem.
any thoughts?

Jonathan,
The JSP file was transformed to a servlet with a "doGet" method. All the
file content is "kind of" sitting in the "doGet". You need to define a
method named doPost in order to be able to serve JSP with POST.
Add something like:
<%!
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
throws IOException, ServletException
{
doGet(request, response);
}
%>
to your page.
This should add JSP POST method handling to the servlet generated from
your
page.

Yes, I have this problem either.
Apache 1.3.12 + mod_jser.so build on FreeBSD 3.3.
This problem was described at http://locus.apache.org/jyve-faq/Turbine/screen/DisplayQuestionAnswer/action/SetAll/project_id/2/faq_id/12/topic_id/43/question_id/259
and has there one answer: "Use precompiled module for Unix (Linux)".
But my Apache fails whith core with it and linux_base port. :(

I've been lurking for a couple of days with a very similar question:
On my Solaris (2.8 Intel) box I can POST arguments to
http://localhost:8080/something
but I *can't* POST arguments to http://localhost/something
I'm guessing (without having been able to follow through the apache
code) that apache has eaten the POST arguments before passing the
request on to tomcat.
What worries me is that I'm getting reports that the same combo
apache 1.3.11/tomcat 3.0 works fine under NT.
Does this sound familiar to anyone?
Cheers,
Ian
