PQ67809: PLUGIN SPECFIC MATCHING DOES NOT INCORPORATE VIRTUAL HOST SCORE | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
![]() |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
![]() APAR status Closed as program error. Error description The plugin used a scoring method during URI resolution to determine if a URL is intended for Websphere. This scoring counts the number of characters that match between a URI entry in the plugin-cfg.xml and the client's URL. . The plugin-cfg entry that has the most matching characters is used to continue with URL routing. The plugin scores Virtual hosts and URI separate, therefore a VirtualHost/URI combination that is an appropriate match may get bypassed.Local fix Play around with generic URL rulesProblem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: WebSphere Application Server version 4.0 * * users of the webserver plugins. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The hostname was not being used in * * the scoring that is done to determine * * which route in the plugin config file * * best matches the given request. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The hostname not being included in the scoring algorithm could result in a route that would be a best match for a request not getting selected leading to an undesired route for the request.Problem conclusion The VirtualHost rules were included in the scoring algorithm so that route matching could find the most specific route match for a given request.Temporary fix Comments
