The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

looking for some suggestions on how to accomplish this
I looking for some elegant  solutions to solve this problem

I have this app that using apache 2 and tomcat/j2ee

First i need to explain alittle how my site is set up..

We have 1000's of users that have their own  document directory

So for example a users URL is http://www.mydomain.com/randy
their document root is /home/users/r/randy
as another example http://www.mydomain.com/fred would be
their doc root would be  /home/users/f/fred

i use apache mod-rewrite so that url points to the correct docroot, and every thing works fine.

So here is my problem, i want to replace the index.html with index.jsp
tomcat does not know about the mod -rewrite, so to access the users site they would have to go to
http://www.mydomain/com/r/randy

so this will not work, so the only thing i can think is to in the index.html do a meta refresh to the index.jsp.

i am wondering if someone has any other ideas?

Thanks

In APACHE/Conf directory.. open httpd.conf

Edit the line:

DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.html.var index.php index.wml

Replace with

DirectoryIndex index.jsp index.html index.htm index.html.var index.php index.wml

That's strange.  If the index.jsp appears before the index.html it should forward the jsp request to your tomcat server.

How is your <virtual host .... :80> set up?

Just did a bit of googling... apparently you need to put the JK2 module *before* loading mod_rewrite.

Source : http://www.velocityreviews.com/forums/t126431-servlet-front-page-without-redirect-tomcat-41-with-modrewrite-and-modjk2.html

I haven't tried the above solution, so will be interested to see how it goes.
