invalid url-pattern
Hi Tomcat People:
On Attempt to start my app under Tomcat 5.0.16 on AIX 5.2
I get an error after adding a filter-mapping with a url-pattern containing
forward slashes (in web.xml).
What I believe to be the relevant portion of the error from catalina.out:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException:
Invalid <url-pattern> /tool/*.afr in filter mapping
(full error output follows below my sig).
I can make the error disappear by removing the forward slashes from the
<url-pattern>
The following produces the error under Tomcat on AIX but works in my
devel. environ. on Windows 2k using Oracle JDevloper 10g (OC4J as
app.server) I can also duplicate the error under Red Hat 9/Tomcat 5.0.16:
----File: web.xml ------
<filter>
<filter-name>Authority Filter</filter-name>
<filter-class>edu.albany.allfunds.authority.AuthFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>Authority Filter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/tool/*.afr</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
------------------------
while this works for both environments (Win2k with OC4J and AIX 5.2 with
Tomcat 5.0.16):
----File: web.xml ------
<filter>
<filter-name>Authority Filter</filter-name>
<filter-class>edu.albany.allfunds.authority.AuthFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>Authority Filter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>*.afr</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
------------------------
But, applying the filter against all .afr files in the app breaks my
security scheme (fyi: I'm using Struts and my actions use extension afr) .
In google'ing I found this Bug report 13014 from the tomcat devel list:
http://archives.real-time.com/pipermail/tomcat-devel/2003-April/049823.html
Checking Tomcat 5.0.19 release source I see this:
Line 150: this.urlPattern = RequestUtil.URLDecode(urlPattern);
in file FilterMap.java
If this is even the problem, I'm not sure what to do with that information
since it would seem that letting URLDecode default to the platform's
character encoding is the desired behavior.
I need some direction at this point....
