Error description
WebSphere V6, servlet filter is not called for URL resources
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: IBM WebSphere Application Server version 6 * * users of servlet filters. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The WebContainer is not calling servlet * * filters when a resource is not found. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** During the processing of a request for a particular resource the WebContainer does not call any custom servlet filters. It is not uncommon for a developer to write a custom servlet filter that will modify the request to look in a different location if a particular resource was not found. Also, custom servlet filters were are not called prior to iterating through the welcome file list in search of a resource.
Problem conclusion
The WebContainer code was modified to call the custom servlet filters prior to looking for welcome files. Also, if the WebContainer cannot find a resource, it will now call the filters before throwing a FileNotFoundException in case the filters modify the path to the resource. The following WebContainer custom property must be set to 'true' for this new behaviour to be enabled: 'com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.invokeFiltersCompatibility' The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fixpacks 6.0.2.21 and 6.1.0.9.
