Question : ;jessionid parameter being added to the url creates a 404 in Tomcat

I am using stripes (similar to struts), and where the cookie is not had a chance to register in the first url the generated links include the jsessionid which would be fine if it was seperated with a question mark instead of a semi-colon. This is giving me a 404 in Tomcat.

I do not have access to the apache/rewrite settings, I heard I maybe able to fix this with a filter, which advice do you have?

I am unlikely to need the session on the next page but will need to use it after that.

I appreciate any help on this

Many thanks

Richard

Answer : ;jessionid parameter being added to the url creates a 404 in Tomcat

I am not familiar exactly how the Stripes "generated links" work, so I'm not 100% sure if my suggestions are the proper approach, but..

1) You could make your home action a non-stripes action, instead, just a standard JSP or HTML page.
2) Instead of using stripes tags for the initial  URLs, use plain hrefs.
