Odd problem

Postby setuk » 29. September 2005 22:00

I wonder if you can help with the problem below - it might be something to do with the setup and config of the Xampp we are using on production:-


I am experiencing odd behaviour on our prod box when what i want to happen works on our dev box.
What we are trying to achieve is to hit the index.html in the root of a virtual host and have that file redirect the browser to another page - a jsp - and then after that page it should redirect to a web page in the root of the virtual host.

The problem we have is that we cant reference the file that we should be redirected to after the jsp - because the browser makes a request that is prefixed with the alias to arsys63 (see below).

47.211.64.105 - - [29/Sep/2005:19:27:11 +0100] "POST /arsys63/servlet/LoginServlet HTTP/1.1" 302 - "http://enmc-remedy/arsys63/shared/login.jsp?goto=/remedy_main.html" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)"
47.211.64.105 - - [29/Sep/2005:19:27:11 +0100] "GET /arsys63/remedy_main.html HTTP/1.1" 404 1494 "http://enmc-remedy/arsys63/shared/login.jsp?goto=/remedy_main.html" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)"


In dev we managed to get around this using relative urls for the goto - like this:-

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL=/arsys63/shared/login.jsp?goto=../../remedy_main.html">

But when we try this on prod we get this in the apache log:-

47.211.64.105 - - [29/Sep/2005:20:58:32 +0100] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 304 - "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)"
And then nothing further and a Cannot find server in the browser.

Dev is using mod_jk2 and prod mod_jk - and prod is using pre-compiled xampp install.

The html request isnt being passed to tomcat since its not showing in the mod_jk logs

I'm sure i must be missing something simple

Configuration Details

On production the set up is as follows:-

The virtual host def looks like:-

<VirtualHost *:80>

The static html files live in
/opt/xampp/htdocs/www-remedy

The redirect information in index.html looks like:-
