I tried to log all request headers and notice three interesting headers: x-forwarded-for : 10.0.0.24 x-forwarded-host : myRealDomain.com x-forwarded-server : my.server.ip.address
So, tomcat(or someone else) does some forwarding and attach those headers on request? If so where and how it is configured? n828cl wrote: > >> From: André Warnier [mailto:a...@ice-sa.com] >> Subject: Re: getServerName returns 'localhost' >> >> public java.lang.String getServerName() >> Returns the host name of the server to which the request was sent. >> It is the value of the part before ":" in the Host header value, if >> any, or the resolved server name, or the server IP address. >> Returns: >> a String containing the name of the server >> >> That does not seem to work in his case. >> >> Does it only work when the <Host> or <Alias> tags with the >> corresponding names are set ? > > The code shows that the HOST header is being used by getServerName(). > Testing with the RequestDumperFilter enabled in examples/WEB-INF/web.xml > shows that it works as documented; here's a portion of the output from > Tomcat running on my desktop with the default <Host> name of localhost: > serverName=usrv-caldarcr.na.uis.unisys.com > serverPort=8080 > > It appears the OP has something else going on that's interfering with the > target IP address.
