I am not sure what you asking here but are you trying to suggest the reverse proxy should be content aware and modify the contents of the responses from the tomcat server to add secure and alter the urls in redirects to be absolute so that the client ends up at the correct destination rather than having tomcat do that? > I'm not saying there is no opportunity for improvement, here, but I don't > see a use-case where the existing capabilities won't work. I agree that the it will work with the ability to disable useRelativeRedirects. My point was just that an upgrade from < 7.0.67 to >= 7.0.67 using a connector configured as described will break redirects until the contexts are configured to not use relative redirects. It is more of a backwards compatibility issue than anything. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
