Url rewrite in Jboss AS7

[jefimm]

Hi,

How can one use url rewrite in Jboss AS 7.0.1 ?

I have tried to add the following configuration to the standalone.xml <virtual-server> node:

<virtual-server name="default-host">

                <alias name="localhost"/>

                <alias name="example.com"/>

                <rewrite pattern="^/helloworld(.*)" substitution="/helloworld/test.jsp"/>

</virtual-server>

and I have deployed the helloworld.war, however the rewrite does not work (I know I can deploy war at the root context I just want to test the rewrite).

Does the http://docs.jboss.org/jbossweb/7.0.x/rewrite.html apply to the Jboss AS7?

Hmm, you would need to look at the 'http-rewriteType' in "docs/schema/jboss-as-web_1_0.xsd" - this should be the correct definition.

I have used the http-rewriteType from the jboss-as-web_1_0.xsd but it does nothing

Hmm, you are right. Looking through the xsd it seems that's out of sync with the code - can you open a AS7 jira here: http://issues.jboss.org/ ? Seems it's missing a <condition /> element, but i can't find any examples right now. Perhaps this helps though: http://docs.jboss.org/jbossweb/7.0.x/config/host.html
