Description Aaron Ogburn 2014-11-17 21:22:16 UTC 
Description of problem:

mod_cluster does not recognize ; as a delimiter when checking the request context. Thus with no trailing slash on index page requests, it treats ;jsessionid as part of the request context and tries to check the balancer for a deployed context of /helloworld;jsessionid=..., which doesn't exist and 404s. Adding the trailing slash, mod_cluster can properly delimit this and then sees the context (so /helloworld/;jsessionid=... works just fine).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

1.2.10.Alpha


How reproducible:

Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Deploy /helloworld in a mod_cluster set up
2. Request "/helloworld;jsessionid=bla" through httpd

Actual results:

A 404 is returned

Expected results:

The request is served
