[opencms-dev] ServerPort issue

[mmihaili at csc.com.au]

Greetings,

We use a Netscape web server to proxy standard port 80 requests to our
WebLogic app server on a non-standard port.
It appears that the OpenCms code is now appending the non-standard port to
our domain name during requests within the workspace.  This fails
miserably.

A little investigation of the code (v5RC2) led us to some changes in class
CmsResponseHttpServlet:

    public void sendCmsRedirect(String location) throws IOException {
        hostName = m_req.getScheme() + "://" + m_req.getServerName() + ":"
+ m_req.getServerPort();
        prior to version 5 this was hostName = m_req.getScheme() + "://" +
m_req.getHeader("HOST");

    public void sendRedirect(String location) throws IOException {
        String hostName = m_req.getServerName() + ":" + m_req.getServerPort
();
        prior to version 5 this was String hostName = m_req.getHeader
("HOST");

We would like some feedback on these changes.

Also, any detailed information on how the clusterurl property in
opencms.properties should be used.

Later,
Moris Mihailidis
