Re: More on pdf error

Chris, I think your hand-off URL to acrobat theory is correct. Not that even if acrobat knew it was a POST, it is not legal for it to use it. The RFCs say that POSTs are not idempotent and thus cannot be retried without asking the user if it is OK. So the fact that IE has issued the POST means that nothing is allowed to retry it - even hitting the reload button should cause the user to be asked if the POST should be retried. So as you say, POSTs should be thought of as write requests. It is a pity that they also return content, as they get used as write/reads which cause these sorts of hassles. cheers Chris Haynes wrote: The other "Chris" wrote: .... And I'm still mystified as to why GET works but POST does not. The MSIE+Acrobat combination, when using the HTTP Range' feature asks the server for each page with a separate request. The 'convention' is that POST is only used to change to state of the server, i.e. to do a 'write' The 'read' of a document, where parameters are needed to locate (define) the document is expected to use GET with URL-encoded parameters. Internally, I suspect that MSIE adopts the 'convention' and just hands Acrobat the URL of the document, it does not tell it whether GET or POST was used, so Acrobat has no alternative but to use the 'conventional' GET. Whgat is annoying in your case is that the HTTP protocol actually supports more than the 'convention' requires; you would have liked MSIE + Adobe to support the full range of technical possibilities. You could try discussing it with them ... If I were them replying to you I would comment that POST implies that you are creating / changing a document, so that using a document-changing model to access a range of bytes from within the middle of that same document is nonsensical. In general you could not know which page / byte range you needed since you are only just now modifying that document. i.e. the page-by-page model requires the document to be unchanging, whereas POST implies that it is being changed.

Re: JSP newbie question

Make sure you don't have a resource handling or Default serlvet configured before the JSP servlet. If you do, it will serve the source before the JSP servlet gets a chance to run. The jetty demo contains a correct configuration. cheers Welch, Ronald P wrote: I hope this is a stupid newbie question. I am using Jetty 4.2.17 on Windows 2000. JDK 1.4.2. Everything is mostly working except, of course, JSP pages (servlet seem to work fine). The behavior I am seeing is when I attempt to browse to a JSP page, I get the JSP code itself back in the browser instead of it being compiled an run by the Jasper servlet. I have tried putting: <Call name="addServlet"> <Arg>JSP</Arg> <Arg>*.jsp</Arg> <Arg>org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet</Arg> </Call> in my app.xml file, but to no avail. Any idea what I am doing wrong?

Jetty Cross Compilation on MIPS Platform

Hi, I am trying to run Jetty on a MIPS_3000 platform. I tried to compile kaffe onto the board and then try to run Jetty on top of it, but the start takes forever and hangs in between. To go around this problem I would like to directly compile Jetty onto the MIPS_Linux board using gcc. Can somebody suggest what needs to be done with regards to this.

Trouble sharing http basic auth between protocols ...

Hi, Using Jetty Plus and either IE or Firefox, when I am already logged into my webapp (using http basic auth) I am prompted to log in again when I try to access a secure resource (that's also protected). An example would be getting the following page: http://www.foo.com/protected/index.html --> where /protected/* is protected (using a security-constraint in web.xml) so I have to log in (using BASIC Auth). Then, after I log in I try the following link (same link with a https protocol): https://www.foo.com/protected/index.html and I am asked to log in again! How can I share the log in info between protocols? cheers, Marinó ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
