I want to use Spring Security, and it says to map the filter to /*. But I already have a filter mapped to /*, which is the Tuckee URLRewrite filter. Is it possible to map two filters to the same thing, and also is there a way to specify the order that the filters get called? ...
How do I not instantiate Spring Security until I need to? I'm using Google App Engine so the startup time of my web app is important.

Certain pages of my app require no authen...

I'm using the GWT Maven plugin from Codehaus with m2eclipse. Where is my web.xml file supposed to end up? Isn't the Maven build supposed to copy it to the /war directory? I can't see it there. Or does Jetty pick it up automatically from src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/? Here's a relevant section from my pom.xml. <plugin> <groupId>org.apache....

If there is an item associated with key xyz, I'll load...
I would like to eliminate the HttpSession completely - can I do this in web.xml? I'm sure there are container specific ways to do it (which is what crowds the search results when I do a Google search). Thanks, LES P.S. Is this a bad idea? I prefer to completely disable things until I actually need them. ...

This oracle document pretty much sums up each element in a web.xml file. But I am also curios about below points: 1) Is there any configuration parameter which should be avoided like plague ? 2) Any parameters related to performance or memory usage ? 3) Security related risk due to common mis-configuration ? What all should I know ab...
Hi, I want to configure tomcat / my web application to use a JDBC realm for container managed security.

For example, if I have a directory /opt/files/ is there a way that I can access its files and sub-directories by visiting http://localhost/some-mapping/? It strikes me that there should be some simple way of doing this, but I ha...

We have a few war files deployed inside an ear file. Some of the war files have a class that caches static data from our PLM system in singletons. Since some of the classes take several minutes to load we use the load-on-startup in the web.xml to load them ahead of time. This all works fine until we attempt to re-deploy the applicatio...

Hi all, From a security standpoint, what is the best solution to handle application errors with Websphere? I've been thinking of creating a class that is called every time an application error is generated, log the error and display a generic error message to the users. In PHP this can be achieved using the set_exception_handler() fun...
What is the relation between web.xml and jboss-web.xml? Seems like: Jboss-web.xml specifies the security domain (which can be found in login-config.xml) web.xml specifies what the security level is I don't understand what happens when jboss-web.xml specifies a weak security domain. Ie: one that cannot do what web.xml s...
