mod-webapp "Bugs"
Hey everybody,
I'm running tomcat 4.0.1 under apache 1.3.22 through mod_webapp from
webapp-module-1.0-tc40-linux-glibc2.2.tar.gz and I've noticed a couple of
quirks in the way it's working. I'm wondering if these are bugs that
will/should be corrected or they are the result of misconfigureation on my
part.
The first problem is that if I go to www.mydomain1.com/webapp-info or
www.mydomain1.com/examples I get:
Not Found
The requested URL /examples was not found on this server.
If I go to www.mydomain1.com/webapp-info/ or www.mydomain1.com/examples/ it
works fine. That happens whether I include a trailing slash in the
httpd.conf WebAppDeploy or not. (Examples from docs say not)
The other, more serious problem is this. I can't authenticate to the
protected areas of my ROOT app through mod-_webapp. I'm using form based
login and a JDBC Realm on tomcat to protect one of the subdirectories.
Everything works fine if I go directly to tomcat on port 8080, but if I go
through apache the authentication fails every time. The 302 redirects work
fine, it's just that no mater what username and password I use it acts like
they're bad. They're not though. I can see them in the database and use
them on port 8080.
Any ideas what's going wrong or where I made a mistake? Are these known
issues with this configureation?
Here's my mod_webapp lines in httpd.conf. I hope somebody can give me a
hand.

We were having this same problem I believe and what we had to do (in linux)
was make sure that the catalina.sh was started from the ~(home) directory

I can't help you but I can say that I have what sounds
like a similar authentication failure when trying to
access the manager app
(http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/manager-howto.html).
When I try to access the manager webapp the BASIC
authentication dialog popped up, I entered the
username and password but can never authenticate
successfuly. I even had a colleague type the
username/password in as a sanity check but no go.
(This was with Tomcat 4.0, I haven't tried 4.0.1)
