But it will not work.
All other condition also not working, i have tested many conditions.

Thanks for help.

Plus, the regular expression doesn't do what he wants it to do; at
least, I don't think it does. My guess is that there needn't be a
double-quote symbol before "android" or after "webos" in the
User-Agent string.

I think he was saying that some proof that Tomcat is in fact reading
the rewrite configuration file is that, when the file has an error in
it, Tomcat will throw errors on startup.

This is top posting.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style#Top-posting
We prefer that people who write to the list use an inline style or bottom
post.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style#Interleaved_style
or
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style#Bottom-posting
The idea is that if everyone does the same thing, it's easier to read and
follow conversations on the list.
I don't know the website you're using, but you can subscribe your email
here. I believe that's the preferred way to interact with the list.

Have you tried something simpler first? Like the example I sent you. Does
it work? From what you've posted, it's not clear if there's a Tomcat
configuration problem (i.e. it's not starting the valve / reading the
rules) or if the rule in question is not working as you'd expect.
If it's the later, then you're going to need to adjust the rule to make it
work. I haven't tried that rule, so I can't say if it will work or not.

Sorry, not sure I follow you here. Are you saying that Tomcat is failing
to start? If so, are you getting an error or exception? If so, include

I did a quick test and it worked for me.
1.) I added this to the context for the examples app: `<Valve
className="org.apache.catalina.valves.rewrite.RewriteValve" />`
2.) I added `webapps/examples/WEB-INF/rewrite.config` to the examples app.
3.) In that file, I put the following.
```
RewriteRule ^/junk$ /does-not-exist [R]
```
4.) I started Tomcat and sent this request with curl. `curl -vv
http://localhost:8080/examples/junk`. The response was a 302 redirect to "
http://localhost:8080/examples/does-not-exist".

Hi Dan,
you are right, i have used this documentation for setting the rewrite rule.
This doc has is mistake in placing the rewrite.config file, but i solved it.
My problem is, that the test condition never works.
Every test rule is ignored.
So what is the reason why every test condition is ignored ?

Frank

Hassan mentioned one way, that's the UrlRewrite filter. Since you're on
Tomcat 8, there's also a rewrite filter built-in. It uses a similar syntax
to HTTPD, which is probably what you found posted on the internet.

Where did you put those directives?
Your regular expression is probably not what you want, because it will
require that android have a double-quote before it, and that webos
have a double-quote after it.

Note that webapps/root will require a request to
http://www.dashandwerk.net/root/[whatever]. If you want to use the
"root" context (deployed on /), you'll need to use ROOT (upper-case
matters, even on a case-insensitive filesystem).

Not surprising, since that's configuration for Apache httpd and has
nothing to do with Tomcat.

Assuming you are in fact actually using Tomcat, you can try this:

Good luck,
