Re: [undertow-dev] undertow is redirecting?

Client is doing a get request:

Response is is a 302. Notice that there is no trailing / for the path.
Is this part of tthe servlet spec or something?
Is this a WAR root or subdirectory (and not a servlet)? if so then yes, take a look at
section 10.10 of the servlet spec. It just uses the term "redirect" and in all
other places in the spec they refer to 302 with the word redirect, and never 301.
Did Undertow used to
send a 301, or just invoke on the war's root?
I think it used to forward.
I have a JAX-RS TCK test that is regressing. It is expecting a 200 or
301 response back from the server. I need to know how to word the
challenge to allow 302 as well, or Undertow needs to be fixed.
I am not sure which makes more sense. 301 would be more efficient but I can think of some
contrived scenarios where you change the layout of your war and the client misbehaves.
e.g you have foo.war/blah/ as a directory but then you later map blah to a servlet, so
then the servlet gets the trailing slash which it somehow mishandles.
Hmm. As I say that I am leaning more towards 301.
IMO the TCK should accept any redirect status code, since it is not restricted in the
spec.
Thanks,
Bill
