Urlrewrite and Railo

[Peter Smith]

Hi all,

I suspect this is a very silly question, but I'm having trouble
setting up urlrewritefilter in a Railo/Tomcat/Apache environment.

/var/www/mydomain.com/WEB-INF contains flex and railo subdirectories,
but no web.inf. According to the urlrewritefilter docs, I should be
putting urlrewrite.xml and urlrewritefilter's lib/ in WEB-INF, then
modifying web.xml.

I've tried various setups, including adding the filter to railo/railo-
web.xml.cfm (instead of web.xml). Either the filter isn't picked up,
or Tomcat bombs with:

java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range:
-1
java.lang.String.substring(String.java:1937)
railo.Version.init(Version.java:48)

Can anyone clarify please where urlrewritefilter should go in a Railo/
Tomcat setup please?
