mapping uri to tomcat directory 2004-04-20 - By Hans Sponberg
Back
I am using apache / tomcat together, and I am wondering how to remap a
request for Tomcat.
For example, I want the uri to be: mydomain.com/username but I want the
actual directory mapping to be /www/users/username. (mydomain.com points
to /www)
For static content, I can use an alias for apache like so: alias
username "www/users/username", but the request is sent to tomcat before
the alias takes place, so tomcat looks in www/username, which of course
does not exist. So the alias works for static content, but not for my jsp
pages.
Furthermore, I cannot setup Tomcat with <Context path="/username"
docBase="/www/users/username".../> because the jsp
files in /www/users/username have <jsp include tags> that
reference content at /www/templates/ and jsp's can't
see beyond their context docBase.
What can I do?
Thanks,
Hans
