Priority: P2 Bug ID: 53356 Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org Summary: Mapping a servlet to the application's context root results in IAE Severity: normal Classification: Unclassified OS: All Reporter: violet...@apache.org Hardware: All Status: NEW Version: 7.0.27 Component: Catalina Product: Tomcat 7 Created attachment 28881 --> https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=28881&action=edit test web app Hi, I have an application and I want to map my servlet to the application's context root, but I do not want to override the "/" mapping for the "default" servlet. It is specified in the Servlet spec that there is a "special" url mapping that can be used for such purposes and it is an empty string (""). I tried several approaches to specify this via web.xml and annotation, unfortunately all of them results in IAE: Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid <url-pattern> in servlet mapping at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.addServletMapping(StandardContext.java:3208) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.addServletMapping(StandardContext.java:3183) at org.apache.catalina.deploy.WebXml.configureContext(WebXml.java:1302) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.webConfig(ContextConfig.java:1305) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.configureStart(ContextConfig.java:855) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.lifecycleEvent(ContextConfig.java:346) The issue was started as mail thread in the users list - http://marc.info/?t=133883470600003&r=1&w=2 Can you please provide this feature?
