I have a simple servlet and it works (it forward me to about.jsp
file).
@WebServlet("/about")
public class AboutServlet extends HttpServlet
{
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws IOException, ServletException
{
RequestDispatcher dispatcher = request.getRequestDispatcher("/about.jsp");
dispatcher.forward(request, response);
}
}
This about.jsp
file needs a navbar.css
to be displayed properly
<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" language="java" %>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Main</title>
<link href="${pageContext.request.contextPath}css/navbar.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
</head>
<body>
<header>
About
</header>
<nav>
<ul>
<li><a href="/about" >About</a></li>
<li><a href="/catalog" >Catalog</a></li>
</ul>
</nav>
</body>
</html>
But navber.css
loading failed.
I opened Network tab in browser and see
General:
Request URL: http://localhost:8080/css/navbar.css
Request Method: GET
Status Code: 302
Remote Address: [::1]:8080
Referrer Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin
Response Headers:
Connection: keep-alive
Content-Length: 0
Date: Wed, 20 Apr 2022 07:20:06 GMT
Keep-Alive: timeout=20
Location: /about
So I have 302 redirect (I don't where this redirect) and I have content-length: 0 for my .css file. navbar.css
located in the webapp/css/navbar.css
And the same problem also with images that places in the webapp folder. So why I filed to load resources from server and how to make ot work?
CodePudding user response:
I've found an issue.
@WebServlet("/")
public class MainServlet extends HttpServlet
{
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws IOException
{
response.sendRedirect("/about");
}
}
This servlet redirects all requests from non servlet URL's to the /about
, so when I commented it everything works OK. But I don't understand why it causes this issue and how to redirect user from /
to /about
