Rex Wang commented on GERONIMO-4647:
------------------------------------

This has been applied to tomcat trunk, so should we applied it to our internal tomcat 6 build?

Applied this to trunk - so it should make its way into tomcat7
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=809596&view=rev

I am not proposing this for backport to tomcat 6. But wouldn't be against it if
it were proposed. So I'm moving this to enhancement.

> When you specify welcome files in web.xml Geronimo throws 404 errors if the welcome file isn't a valid file resource.
> Values that are URL mappings to a servlet are ignored by the app server even through they are valid.
> This means that I can't have a welcome file of "/index.jsf" or "/index.do" or "/someservlet".
> The only welcome files that Geronimo seems to not throw a 404 Not Found error are actual files found in the web application.
