Hi,

i have quite a strange Problem with getting a Servlet to react to requests for http://localhost:8080/ejbTest/client/launch.jnlp

I have an ejbTest.war in the deploy-Directory of the server, which contains the following structure:

/client/launch.jnlp
/client/client.jar
/WEB-INF/web.xml
/WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml
/WEB-INF/lib/jnlp-servlet.jar

web.xml has the following content:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN" "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">

<web-app >



<servlet-name>JnlpDownloadServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.sun.javaws.servlet.JnlpDownloadServlet</servlet-class>


<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>JnlpDownloadServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/client/launch.jnlp</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

</web-app>

This war-deployment works quite fine using only tomcat.

However when using JBoss, the plain-text launch.jnlp gets delivered to the client, instead of calling the servlet.

What's strange, however, is that if calling http://localhost:8080/ejbTest/launch.jnlp, it works as it should work when /ejbTest/client/launch.jnlp would be called.

Has anyone ever experienced such strange Problems with subdirectorys? Am I missing something?

Attatched is the war-file containing the application, it contains some other classes, too, but the ones specified above are affected.

Thanks for any help.

Michael
