Although I am not responsible for the front end, I seem to recall we use mod_proxy for the reverse proxy. We have front end Apache web servers that listen for requests externally, internally I can access Tomcat directly. mod_rewrite is used to make our applications on Tomcat and Apache appear as one.

I use a Java Servlet on Tomcat 5.5.20 with JDK 6.02 ... What I am curious to know is if the cookie gets set correctly with this configuration? could the proxy be interfering with normal Tomcat operation?

Is your webapp using a session cookie (JSESSIONID)?
I don't explicitly do anything, Tomcat handles this, but yes.

Hi all

My question involves Tomcat in conjunction with Apache and mod_rewrite. Tomcat appends a jsessionid to the first request, but not to subsequent requests, which is normal behaviour. When I access my Servlet directly through Tomcat that is precisely what I get.

But when I redirect requests through Apache and mod_rewrite for some reason the session id is being appended to every subsequent request. I can remove this of course using a filter, but before I do so, can anyone explain to me why this is happening?

What do you mean by "redirect requests through"? Are you using mod_proxy or mod_jk? You should describe your setup (abstract, versions used and relevant parts of the configuration).

Thanks
