jsessionid appended to URL and page not found`
Hi All,
I have a link to a struts web application in one of
existing website like start.jsp?cntry_cd=US
start.jsp is in struts application and contains the
following line
<jsp:forward page="/setup.do" />
setup action does some pre-setup stuff and forwards to
home page. The home page displays well with all
navigation links. But, when I click on any of the
navigation links (which are actions and their URL
looks like status.do;jsession=jfdkfdkfdk ..jsessionid
appened only initially ) , I get error message that
page cannot be found.
If before clicking on any of the links, I do refresh
on the home page and then click on any links, then it
works fine.
My question is, why it cannot find actions, when
jsessionid is appended to URL. What can i do to fix
this issue.
Thanks for your help.
Vinod

The solution Christopher and Dave discuss above can be handled with this in
the Apache httpd.conf file:
RewriteRule ^(.*);jsessionid=.*$ $1
This strips the session ID from anything that the HTTPD server is handling,
although it should still get passed through the proxy. To be honest, our
apps depend on cookies for other reasons so if URL rewrite sessions didn't
work, we might never notice.
The fact that your proxy config is not correctly brokering some URLs over to
the servlet container would depend on how your proxy config is set up; I'm
not very experienced in actally setting this up, but my diagnosis is
correct, then the Struts mailing list is not the best place for the question
anyway...

For me, this strategy is only necessary when I want Apache httpd to
serve static content that has an encoded jsessiond in the URL. Anything
that gets passed-through to the app server (Tomcat in my case) is
handled correctly.
Use of mod_rewrite is only necessary when Apache httpd incorrectly
includes the ";jsessionid" as part of the filename, and therefore fails
to locate "some-static.html;jsessionid=ABCDEF" in the filesystem.
mod_rewrite can be used to remove the jsessionid, allowing Apache httpd
to correctly locate the static resource on the disk.

IIRC when we had this problem we used one of the
rewrite mods to nudge Apache to know that the
;jsessionid etc. was special.
There's probably a better solution these days :)

Hi Joe,
Thanks for your reply. Basic Http Service is handled
by apache web server and servlet requests are handled
by Tomcat. So I have apache+tomcat integrated. What
confirguration settings, do I need to make this work
in this scenario.
Thanks

What is handling the basic HTTP service for your application? If it is not
a servlet container, but rather an HTTP server which proxies certain
requests to a servlet container, then there is probably just a configuration
problem.
The scenario you describe is standard. A Servlet Container (or maybe it's
the JSP engine) is supposed to encode the session ID in URLs unless it knows
that the client accepts cookies, which it can only know if the client
already presented a cookie with a session ID in it (as on reload or later
clicks through the application.)
If you don't have an HTTP proxy in the middle, then what servlet container
are you using? I do local development with Tomcat and have for years with
it being the HTTP server, and have never had this problem.
