The short answer is that you can't. The longer answer is that if you have a Servlet mapped to /* in the gsafd app, then Tomcat will send the /gsafd request through unchanged (this "feature" is mostly to deal with broken WebDav clients). This means that you can only use prefix matches in your web.xml, but it might be enough for you.
"Thompson,Roger" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Background: Tomcat 5.5.20 I am devolping a web service to provide vocabulary in a library setting. The service will be located at: http://tspilot.oclc.org/ One of the vocabularies is named "gsafd" I need to respond differently to: http://tspilot.oclc.org/gsafd vs http://tspilot.oclc.org/gsafd/ In the first case, I need to provide an XML document that gives a description of the vocabulary. I'm trying to do this from the ROOT webapp. In the second case, I am providing an SRU explain response. I have managed to accomplish the second case via URL rewrite rules in the gsafd webapp's web.xml. It appears that TOMCAT adds the trailing slash to the URL if it is not present and so route the request through the gsafd context. How do I set up TOMCAT not to do this so the first form is processed through the ROOT webapp. There will be other vocabularies: lcsh, lcshac, mesh, and fast as well as other that have to respond the same way.
