Problem with IIS- WebLogic bridge

Question

Hi!
We have configured the IIS-WebLogic bridge for WebLogic 6.0 (SP1), with IIS
4.0 on two separate machines. This works on URLs which directly refer to
pages lying on the same machine as WebLogic, but some links which refer to
WebLogic properties file and then determines the page to be displayed (e.g.
include files). These work when the exact URL (including the IP Address and
port no. of the WebLogic Server) is pasted in the browser address window,
but fail when the proxied hyperlink is clicked from another page, or the
proxied URL is pasted in the address window.
Can anyone help. This is slightly urgent.
thanks and regards,

It looks like you have the sendRedirect() problem.
We will convert the relative uri into Absolute URL in the sendRedirect().
the logic looks something like:
if (url is an absolute url) { //i.e: http://host:port/dummy.jsp
response.setHeader("Location", url);
sendError("302");
} else if (url is an absolute uri) { //i.e: /dummy.jsp
//prepend protocol, host and port info
} else if (url is a relative uri) { //i.e: dummy.jsp
//cacluate the context path based on the current request
//i.e: you are request http://iis:7001/include/index.jsp
PathTrim=/weblogic is set in the iisproxy.ini
//so the Location header looks like:
//http://iis:7001/weblogic/include/dummy.jsp
As you can see you may need to specify the redirected uri
to fall into the rules of "proxy by path" or "proxy by mime type" if you want
the iis to proxy the request properly.
