Another option I've been learning to use (it has both forward and redirect capabilities) is:

http://tuckey.org/urlrewrite/

RE: Does the URL for the page change or is it consistent?

Hey there, thanks for writing.  The URL is consistent.  In fact, I've
come to discover that it's really everything under a specific directory that
I would like to re-direct.   So, to modify my previous example, we would
like everything under:

http://foo/SomeWebapp/SomeDirectory/SomeSubDirectory

To forward or redirect to:

http://foo/SomeWebapp

You could use a Servlet Filter, with the url-pattern mapped to the path
you want.  Inside the filter, just execute a redirect to you preferred
URL.  The Filters are processed before requests to the application or
filesystem.

It's not something we want to do permanently.  It's really just something we
need to do somewhat urgently for a short period of time...probably a few
weeks.

Cheers,
Davey

Morning folks...

I'm new to Tomcat 6.x and would appreciate any advice.

We have a dynamically-generated page pretty deep in our site which, long
story short, we do not wish to modify or alter in any way.  However, we
would like any requests for that page to re-direct / forward to the
front
door of the site.

So for example, when a user hits the following URL:

http://Foo/SomeWebapp/SomeDirectory/SomeDynamicPage/SomePageId
Does the URL for the page change or is it consistent?

p


They would immediately be sent to:

http://Foo/SomeWebapp/

It seems like there must be a really easy way to do this from the Tomcat
Admin console somewhere, but I can't spot it and nothing in the official
docs I've read so far leap out at me.  I'd appreciate any guidance here.

Cheers,
