request.getContextPath issue.

[Wesley Hof <wh...@kiala.com>]

Hi list,

Version: Jakarta-5.5.7

I deployed a new warfile in a new virtualhost in my server.xml :

<Host name="dspextranet.lan.kiala.com" appBase="dspextranet" 
unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"  xmlValidation="false" 
xmlNamespaceAware="false">
   <Context reloadable="true" path="" 
docBase="/usr/local/kiala/dspextranet/dspextranet.war" override="true">
        <Resource name="jdbc/dspExtranetDS" type="javax.sql.DataSource" 
auth="Container" 
url="jdbc:mysql://kpserverdb:3306/dspextranet?autoReconnect=true&amp;characterEncoding=UTF-8&amp;useUnicode=true&amp;jdbcCompliantTruncation=false" 
driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" username="" password="" 
maxWait="5000" maxActive="4" maxIdle="2"/>
   </Context>
</Host>

Now in the src we do:

<% pageContext.setAttribute("ctx", request.getContextPath()); %>
<form action="${ctx}/${param.os_destination}" method="post">

but for some reason I always get http://home/home.action, and $ctx 
contains just a "/", but the path in the context is set to "". Can 
someone explain me how to fix this ?

Thanks.
Wesley.
