Question

I’m using maven and I put urlrewrite.xml under source folder src/main/resources/. Configure web.xml like this:

<filter>
<filter-name>UrlRewriteFilter</filter-name>
<filter-class>org.tuckey.web.filters.urlrewrite.UrlRewriteFilter</filter-class>
<init-param>
    <param-name>confPath</param-name> 
    <param-value>classpath:urlrewrite.xml</param-value>             
</init-param>


</filter>

  <filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>UrlRewriteFilter</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
    <dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher>
    <dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher>
  </filter-mapping>

but get err:org.tuckey.web.filters.urlrewrite.UrlRewriteFilter ERROR: unable to find urlrewrite conf file at classpath:urlrewrite.xml. If I put it in the default loc:/WEB-INF/urlrewrite.xml. It works. But I want to conform to the maven specs and put all configurations under resources folder.

Could anyone kindly help me? Thanks.

Use this

<init-param>
    <param-name>confPath</param-name>
    <param-value>/WEB-INF/urlrewrite.xml</param-value>
</init-param>

and Put the urlrewrite.xml file inside ‘WEB-INF’
