| Problem | Changes in the plug-in for the IBM® HTTP Server from versions 1.3.x to 2.0.x might cause WebSphere® virtualhost matching to fail in the newer version. | | Cause | By default, the v1.3.x plug-in uses the Web server name for virtual host matching if there is no host header; v2.0 uses localhost by default. The change was made to the v2.0.x plug-in because IBM HTTP Server is capable of hosting multiple virtual servers. Using the former behavior causes unexpected virtualhost matching failures. | | Solution | Add *:80 in the virtualhost list in the WebSphere Application Server administrative console for the application server. This allows matching to the localhost hostname. Alternatively, you can add a localhost:80 and route to a specific application. | |
