I think I have fixed the error I had. I have downgraded to Java 6 update 45,
to see if it worked on there, but it didn't.
I stayed with Java 6 to try and resolve the issue. Basically in my
WEB-INF/web.xml file I have the following:
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>Auth Filter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>*.do</url-pattern>
<dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher>
</filter-mapping>
All requests go to the doFilter() function. In Java 5.5.29 it wasn't sending
.jsp requests to the the doFilter, even though the above is in the web.xml file.
In Java 6 and above, it sends the .jsp file to be processed as well. So if I
comment out or take out the <url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern> line, my code
works.
I don't know what's changed in the Java 6 code for this to not work.
Does anyone know why this is so I have an understanding of it?
Thanks again to all that have helped with this, I know I threw out multiple
questions, just didn't want to leave anything out :)
