Summary: j_security_check redirects to favicon.ico
Product: Tomcat 5
Version: 5.5.9
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows XP
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Connector:HTTP
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Since I started to deploy a web application at the root of a Tomcat instance
(running inside JBoss), the first login attempt after starting the browser
always results in a redirection to the site's favicon! The login itself is
successful (re-entering the site address loads the home page, logged in). I can
then log in and out (and access the site) without any trouble -- until I next
restart the browser. This happens regardless of what browser is used (I tried
Firefox 3 and Internet Explorer 7). Following are the headers of the
conversation:
