Response.sendRedirect(URL), problem if '&' is usd as part of paramete value

i have to redirect to a page having following URL
http://www.citease.com/afc/d&o_coverage.htm
now & is part of value rather than a separater of parameters.
whenever i redirect it as
strURL = "http://localhost:8080/cms/redirector.jsp?ckUrl=http://www.citease.com/afc/d&o_coverage.htm";
response.sendRedirect(strURL);
it will not work properly, will try to access only
http://www.citease.com/afc/d
Please help.
Best regards,
Waseem Aslam

Encode the URL, the & should be & amp;.
You may find the URLEncoder useful.

How to handle response.sendRedirect(url) in a portlet w/ webflow?

I am using a webflow to navigate within a portlet. There are three jsp pages or
nodes in the portlet. One of the jsp pages has the following logic:
if (A) { response.sendRedirect(url1)}
else if(B) { response.sendRedirect(url2)}
else{display rest of this jsp page}
I think I have the correct portlet urls. I used WebflowJSPHelper.createWebflowURL(...).
The problem is when it tries to redirect, the whole portlet disapears leaving
only the title bar. I check the weblogic log file and there is an exception about
RuleSetNotFoundException. Does anybody know how to handle this problem? Can
I use sendRedirect method in a portlet?
thanks,

Go to dev2dev.bea.com source code library and copy the redirect sample code in
your application domain. This program expects you to make come changes in the
portal workflow.

Dear James,
Maybe I'll be boring, but I'll give you my expirience with "sendRedirect".
When you use sendRedirect you send back to the browser a new URL that
him will
use to obtain the content that will be exposed, in other words, It's
a client
side operation.
The portlet machanism work on the server side of the application. So
why you are
using sendRedirect? If one of that conditions happen, are you interesting
in expose
a content of another web site?
If you want to expose the content of another web site, use the wizard
to generate
a example jsp page who do this correct in a portlet and adapt the code
to your
situation.
Otherwise, you are using a wrong concept. If it's a server side operation
you
need to use "forward" or "include" operation to do what you want.
I expect be helpfull,
Edoardo Boechat.

Exception on [b]Response.sendRedirect(url)[/b]

I have 2 pages search page & add page i am getting IllegalStateException when trying to execute the following code
response.sendRedirect("Add_Employee.jsp");

@OP:
response.sendRedirect("Add_Employee.jsp");
response.sendRedirect(response.encodeRedirectURL("Add_Employee.jsp"));
@Reply1:
response.sendRedirect("http://localhost:8080/Add_Emplo
yee.jsp");It's better not to hard-code the URL in the manner you have specified. It would require frequent change everytime the web application is deployed on a different server, which would mean a loss of portability.

Problem with Crystal Reports not displaying all parameter values

Hello,
A co-worker of mine is developing a report in Crystal version 11.5.8.826. One of the requirements from his user is that they would like to select from a list of users for applicable criteria to appear in the report. He created a parameter with a dynamic list of values, entered prompt group text, selected "existing" as the data source (and chose the corresponding field from the table). This dropped the UserID field into the "value" field in the table and linked the table to the parameter. We selected "allow multiple values" as "true" and "allow discrete values" as "true".
Here is the problem. When Crystal prompts us to select the parameters, it doesn't show all of the applicable list of users (it shows 8 out of 12 users). When we run the query in a standalone sql generating tool (Toad or Golden), we see the full list of users. Crystal Reports appears to be filtering the selection list of users for some unknown reason. We have tried changing most every option that we could find within the parameter, but no luck.
The problem definitely appears to lie within the parameter- if we run the report without the parameter, we see the full list of users. Once we add the parameter and attempt to select one or many users, the problem appears.
Any thoughts? What am I missing? Any help is appreciated.
thanks,
Noel

Response.sendRedirect() from doEndTag() method

Hi there,
I am trying to call response.sendRedirect("url") in a custom tag doEndTag() method but for or some reason I cannot get access to the javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse object where this method lives. Does anyone know how I can do a response.redirect from a doEndTag() method? I've searched the forum and it appears other people can do it but I'm not sure how?
I can get access to javax.servlet.ServletResponse object by using pageContext.getResponse() but that doesn't give me the response.sendRedirect method. Can anyone help? What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for your help.
Cheers,
Brent.

you can pass the response object as argument to your
method..Thanks for your response!
Unfortunately I can't change the doEndTag() method parameters as doEndTag() is defined in the Tag interface. But if you mean pass the response object as an attribute of the tag i suppse that is possible.
However, that's pretty close to the hack I currently have to work around this problem except I'm putting the response object in a request attribute in the page and then retrieving it in the doEndTag() method.
But I am after something a little cleaner than either of these options..... I'm hoping I can just get the response object from another object I have access to. Any more thoughts?

6.1 SP5: response.sendRedirect crashes

Hi all,
I am porting a JSP app from Iplanet 4.1 to SunONE 6.1 SP5 (Solaris 5.9).
When I try to do the above statement in a JSP, I get the following in the error log:

I am not sure what I need to declare differently in 6.1. The web app jars are in WEB-INF/lib under the docroot.
The code in the JSP is pretty standard, but ran under Iplanet 4.1.
try {
String URL = "https://www.ozbet.com.au/tab/ozbet.htm?p_date=" //has parameters;
response.sendRedirect(URL);
catch (ApplicationException e) {
//do some stuff here
%>
<b>ERROR:</b> <%= msg %>"
<%
FYI the webapp is working fine wrt to jdbc, jsp etc. It is just the sendRedirect() that is crashing.
Do I need to declare anything related to NSAPI in obj.conf ?
Please help and thanks in advance.

That's not a crash. HttpServletResponse.sendRedirect is throwing an IllegalStateException because you called it after the response had been committed. This is a documented part of the Servlet spec. (See, for example, http://java.sun.com/j2ee/sdk_1.3/techdocs/api/javax/servlet/http/HttpServletResponse.html#sendRedirect(java.lang.String) for the the J2EE 1.3 docs.)
The most likely problem is that you're calling sendRedirect after an include or after outputting too much data. If you're going to call sendRedirect, you need to do so near the top of your JSP file, before you output a lot of data. Once data has been sent to the client, there's no way for the server to say "oops, never mind, ignore that data and redirect over here instead".

URL Reporting Time parameter value.

We have installed Business objects XIR2 and one of our application uses URL reporting to call a crystal report. Parameter values are retrieved from the database and used in the url. Reports that do not have a time parameter works fine. Even though I pass the time parameter value Im still prompted for the value. The format of the url I use is http://hostname/businessobjects/viewrpt.cwr?init=dhtml&apstoken=<token>&prompt0=02:02:20&prompt1=LOCCODE
where prompt0 is of type par_time. Could someone please help me with the correct format to use for parameter type time?

Ted, I checked the prompt order and the prompt type and they are correct. These reports are working fine on Crystal 9. Also reports that do not have a time parameter works fine in Crystal 11. Its only when reports with time parameter are called Im prompted for a value to be entered in hh:mm:ss format although I tried passing the value in hh:mm:ss format and Time(hh, mm, ss) format in the url. The report comes up fine after entering the value in hh:mm:ss value in the prompt. I tried encoding the url but it didnt work. If I encode the entire url Crystal prompts me to enter values for all parameters.

Response.sendRedirect() problem

Hi all,
I in facing a problem during using response.sendRedirect() or there is some mistake, please help me...
I have written two jsp files:
i.e. first.jsp and second.jsp
FIRST.JSP is as follwing:
<%@ page import="java.io.*" %>
<%
     response.sendRedirect("http://192.168.0.4:9999/mylogo/second.jsp");
%>
and SECOND.JSP is as follows:
<%@ page import="java.io.*" %>
<%
     String coding=request.getParameter("name").trim();
%>
     My name is <h1><%= coding %></h1>
but when i write the follwing in address bar:
http://localhost:9999/mylogo/first.jsp?name=jake
an error occurs:
NullPointerException messae is received. I am using Apache Tomcat/4.1.29.
Please help me, and tell if ther is any thing missing in this code....
Thankx in advance...

When you use redirection, you are sending a header back to the browser which tells it to go somewhere else. This results in an entirely new request. Because of this, any request info from the first page will not be in the second. The advantage of redirects is you can tell the browser to go to any other server.
If you want to maintain the same request info, you can use forward. Forward only passes control in the server to another page. The browser will have no idea that this is happening, and it cannot go to another server.

Response.sendRedirect doesn't work

Hi,
I implemented the post authentication class. I added some code to the onLoginFailed method and i am trying to redirect user for my own page and not the standard error page of opensso (IdP). When using response.sendRedirect("/my_page") i got an error message telling me that redirection has failed because record already committed.
I think the problem is due to the original redirection done by the IdP, isn't it? Is there a solution to redirect user for my own login failure page?
Thanks.

How about this.
Do a combination of the two.
Use the post auth plugin to do your work with LDAP it has access and has all the needed information.
Add the attributes to the ?session?header? in the post auth plugin maybe?
Use the default failrue url you are sending them to to pull the info out of the session headers and do whatever is needed at that point?
I would try just populating one attribute first and redirecting using the default failure url to some simple page that prints out to validate if it would work.

Response.sendRedirect is not working for IE5.5

Hi All,
I am using response.sendRedirect method to go to different page from jsp file. It was working file before IE was upgraded to version 5.5. It is still working fine with Netscape.
With IE, it remains on the same page even after executing response.sendRedirect method. IT ACTUALLY GOES TO ANOTHER PAGE AFTER SELECTING REFRESH. Could this be a CACHE problem. However, I tried to append the URL with some random number every time it executes response.sendRedirect method just to make it a different URL and still getting the same result.
Any Help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Every time I clear the History Cache, It works for the first time and after that it remains on the same page.
I tried to set the days to store the hist pages as 0.
please let me know if any other browser settings OR program changes required.
Thanks.

          response.sendRedirect("../error/error.jsp?url=../../hello.jsp&err=hello");
          doesn't work, WLS tells me page not found! Its mean WLS can't go back more than one lever directory!! It's not fun!! Can somebody help me?

Weblogic 6.0 (SP2) generates incorrect java code for JSP with response.sendRedirect()

          Hi,
          Here are the steps to reproduce the problem with the examplesWebApp application
          bundled with wlserver6.0(sp2):
          Product: Weblogic server 6.0 (sp2)
          Browser: IE 5.0
          1. Add index.jsp as the welcome file in WEB-INF/web.xml
          2. Create index.jsp as below:
          <%
          response.sendRedirect("index.html");
          return;
          %>
          <html>
          <head>
          <title>Index JSP file</title>
          </head>
          <body>
          <font color="red">This is index.jsp file </font>
          </body>
          </html>
          3. Create index.html as below:
          <html>
          <head>
          <title>Index HTML file</title>
          </head>
          <body>
          <font color="red">This is index.html file </font>
          </body>
          </html>
          4. Run the examples server and make sure examplesWebApp is deployed on the examples
          server using the console
          5. Access the URL http://localhost:7001/examplesWebApp
          The page will display a compilation error as below:
          C:\bea\wlserver6.0\config\examples\applications\examplesWebApp\WEB-INF\_tmp_war_examplesServer_examplesServer_examplesWebApp\jsp_servlet\_index.java:89:
          unreachable statement
          out.print("\r\n<html>\r\n<head>\r\n<title>Simple html</title>\r\n</head>\r\n<body>\r\n<font
          color=\"red\">This is index.jsp page</font>\r\n</body>\r\n</html>\r\n");
          ^
          and a look at the generated java code for index.jsp (_index.java) will reveal
          the erroneous code snippet below in the jsp service method:
          try { // error page try block
          //[ /index.jsp; Line: 1]
          response.sendRedirect("index.html"); //[ /index.jsp; Line: 2]
          return; //[ /index.jsp; Line: 3]
          out.print("\r\n<html>\r\n<head>\r\n<title>Simple html</title>\r\n</head>\r\n<body>\r\n<font
          color=\"red\">This is index.jsp page</font>\r\n</body>\r\n</html>\r\n");
          } catch (Exception __ee) {
          while (out != null && out != _originalOut) out = pageContext.popBody();
          pageContext.handlePageException(__ee);
          The above web application works fine in Tomcat 3.2.X environment. The Weblogic
          server 6.0 servlet engine should not generate the "out.println()" corresponding
          to the html section of index.jsp. The moment it sees the "return", it should stop
          processing further.
          Can someone from Weblogic support team please verify this and let me know when
          this bug will be fixed?
          One interesting thing I noticed was when we last tried weblogic 6.0 at its beta
          stage, it worked fine after we put in a special patch jar file called "redirectfix.jar"
          we received from weblogic team but somehow it got re-introduced by the time it
          was released!!
          We are planning to migrate our product from tomcat 3.2.x to weblogic 6.0. Our
          product has a lot of pages with such conditional {response.sendRdirect("page.jsp");return;}
          blocks. We would really appreciate a faster response form weblogic team.
          Thanks in advance.

Why should it stop when it sees a return? Is that in the spec?

Response.sendRedirect doesn't work with Internet Explorer

I do posts like advised here: http://www.theserverside.com/tt/articles/article.tss?l=RedirectAfterPost. GET-POST-REDIRECT-GET. Now I have a problem when do redirecting to the same page in Internet Explorer. It works good with Mozilla Firefox but not with Internet Explorer. When user click to "Enable"/"Disable" link and do submit, application makes changes on the database. Changes occurs, but redirect to the page doesn't work. When I refresh page, I see that, the changes was occurred. When I use Mozilla Firefox with same JSP, there is no need to refresh page, because, redirect works. When I change redirect URL to other, for example http://www.google.com/, redirect doesn,t work in Internet Explorer too.
Code of users.jsp JSP:
<%@ page import="az.ub.ccs.beans.User" %>
<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" language="java" %>
<%@ page errorPage="error.jsp" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" %>
<jsp:useBean id="bc" scope="page" class="az.ub.ccs.beans.BreadCrumb" />
<jsp:useBean id="user" scope="request" class="az.ub.ccs.beans.User"/>
<c:if test="${sessionScope.active == null}"><c:redirect url="login.jsp" /></c:if>
<%
   if(request.getParameter("stateAction") != null)
      int state = (request.getParameter("stateAction").equals("enable")) ? 0 : 1;
      User.changeUserState(Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("itemID")), state);
      response.sendRedirect("users.jsp");
      //response.setStatus(HttpServletResponse.SC_SEE_OTHER);
      //response.setHeader("Location", "users.jsp");
   bc.add("Users");
%>
<jsp:include page="top.jsp" flush="true">
   <jsp:param name="breadCrumbString" value="${bc.breadCrumbsAsHTML}"/>
   <jsp:param name="pageTitle" value="Users"/>
</jsp:include>
<tr>
   <td>
      <table border="1" width="100%">
         <tr class="tableHeader">
            <td>ID</td>
            <td>Имя пользователя</td>
            <td>Логин</td>
            <td>Номер группы</td>
            <td>Название группы</td>
            <td>Email</td>
            <td>Номер</td>
            <td colspan="2">Действие</td>
         </tr>
         <c:forEach items="${user.userList}" var="user">
         <tr>
            <td align="right">"${user.userID}"</td>
            <td><c:out value="${user.userName}"/></td>
         </c:forEach>
         <tr>
            <td colspan="7"> </td>
            <td colspan="2"><a href="addEditUser.jsp">[Add new]</a></td>
         </tr>
      </table>
      <form name="stateForm" method="post" action="users.jsp">
         <input type="hidden" name="itemID"/>
         <input type="hidden" name="stateAction"/>
      </form>
   </td>
</tr>
<jsp:include page="bottom.jsp" flush="true"/>
