I dropped a (Servlet 2.3) Struts 1.2.7 + Tiles webapp into a fresh Tomcat
5.5 install, and started seeing directory listings of contents under
WEB-INF.
Tomcat properly refuses to serve any of the files; clicking on any of them
gives the usual 404 that you'd get if you constructed a URL to something
under WEB-INF.
It seems to be coming from tags like this
basicLayout.jsp:
<tiles:insert attribute="tabs"/>
when I do this to keep anything from appearing in that spot
tiles-defs.xml:
<definition name="masterPage" path="/WEB-INF/jsp/layout/basicLayout.jsp">
<put name="tabs" value="" />
</definition>
I don't know whether Tiles or Tomcat is at fault here, but I'm pretty sure
that no matter how badly I misconfigure a webapp, [and I didn't change
anything from what worked on Tomcat 4.1,] it should not be possible to get
directory listings under WEB-INF.
(On advice from tomcat-user, I've "fixed" the problem by turning off
directory listings for the default servlet in conf/web.xml.)
Has anyone else tried to move a Struts+Tiles app to Tomcat 5.5 with no
changes?
