|
|
<p>
|
|
The default servlet is the servlet which serves static resources as well
|
|
as serves the directory listings (if directory listings are enabled).
|
|
</p>
|
|
</div><h3 id="where">Where is it declared?</h3><div class="text">
|
|
<p>
|
|
It is declared globally in <i>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/web.xml</i>.
|
|
By default here is it's declaration:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code> <servlet>
|
|
<servlet-name>default</servlet-name>
|
|
<servlet-class>
|
|
org.apache.catalina.servlets.DefaultServlet
|
|
</servlet-class>
|
|
<init-param>
|
|
<param-name>debug</param-name>
|
|
<param-value>0</param-value>
|
|
</init-param>
|
|
<init-param>
|
|
<param-name>listings</param-name>
|
|
<param-value>false</param-value>
|
|
</init-param>
|
|
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
|
|
</servlet>
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
<servlet-mapping>
|
|
<servlet-name>default</servlet-name>
|
|
<url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
|
|
</servlet-mapping></code></pre></div>
|
|
|
|
So by default, the default servlet is loaded at webapp startup and
|
|
directory listings are disabled and debugging is turned off.
|
|
</div><h3 id="change">What can I change?</h3><div class="text">
|
|
<p>
|
|
The DefaultServlet allows the following initParamters:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<table class="defaultTable"><tr><th style="width: 15%;">
|
|
Property
|
|
</th><th style="width: 85%;">
|
|
Description
|
|
</th></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">debug</code></td><td>
|
|
Debugging level. It is not very useful unless you are a tomcat
|
|
developer. As
|
|
of this writing, useful values are 0, 1, 11, 1000. [0]
|
|
</td></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">listings</code></td><td>
|
|
If no welcome file is present, can a directory listing be
|
|
shown?
|
|
value may be <b>true</b> or <b>false</b> [false]
|
|
<br>
|
|
Welcome files are part of the servlet api.
|
|
<br>
|
|
<b>WARNING:</b> Listings of directories containing many entries are
|
|
expensive. Multiple requests for large directory listings can consume
|
|
significant proportions of server resources.
|
|
</td></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">gzip</code></td><td>
|
|
If a gzipped version of a file exists (a file with <code>.gz</code>
|
|
appended to the file name located alongside the original file), Tomcat
|
|
will serve the gzipped file if the user agent supports gzip and this
|
|
option is enabled. [false]
|
|
<br>
|
|
The file with the <code>.gz</code> extension will be accessible if
|
|
requested directly so if the original resource is protected with a
|
|
security constraint, the gzipped version must be similarly protected.
|
|
</td></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">readmeFile</code></td><td>
|
|
If a directory listing is presented, a readme file may also
|
|
be presented with the listing. This file is inserted as is
|
|
so it may contain HTML.
|
|
</td></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">globalXsltFile</code></td><td>
|
|
If you wish to customize your directory listing, you
|
|
can use an XSL transformation. This value is a relative file name (to
|
|
either $CATALINA_BASE/conf/ or $CATALINA_HOME/conf/) which will be used
|
|
for all directory listings. This can be overridden per context and/or
|
|
per directory. See <strong>contextXsltFile</strong> and
|
|
<strong>localXsltFile</strong> below. The format of the xml is shown
|
|
below.
|
|
</td></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">contextXsltFile</code></td><td>
|
|
You may also customize your directory listing by context by
|
|
configuring <code>contextXsltFile</code>. This must be a context
|
|
relative path (e.g.: <code>/path/to/context.xslt</code>) to a file with
|
|
a <code>.xsl</code> or <code>.xslt</code> extension. This overrides
|
|
<code>globalXsltFile</code>. If this value is present but a file does
|
|
not exist, then <code>globalXsltFile</code> will be used. If
|
|
<code>globalXsltFile</code> does not exist, then the default
|
|
directory listing will be shown.
|
|
</td></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">localXsltFile</code></td><td>
|
|
You may also customize your directory listing by directory by
|
|
configuring <code>localXsltFile</code>. This must be a file in the
|
|
directory where the listing will take place to with a
|
|
<code>.xsl</code> or <code>.xslt</code> extension. This overrides
|
|
<code>globalXsltFile</code> and <code>contextXsltFile</code>. If this
|
|
value is present but a file does not exist, then
|
|
<code>contextXsltFile</code> will be used. If
|
|
<code>contextXsltFile</code> does not exist, then
|
|
<code>globalXsltFile</code> will be used. If
|
|
<code>globalXsltFile</code> does not exist, then the default
|
|
directory listing will be shown.
|
|
</td></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">input</code></td><td>
|
|
Input buffer size (in bytes) when reading
|
|
resources to be served. [2048]
|
|
</td></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">output</code></td><td>
|
|
Output buffer size (in bytes) when writing
|
|
resources to be served. [2048]
|
|
</td></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">readonly</code></td><td>
|
|
Is this context "read only", so HTTP commands like PUT and
|
|
DELETE are rejected? [true]
|
|
</td></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">fileEncoding</code></td><td>
|
|
File encoding to be used when reading static resources.
|
|
[platform default]
|
|
</td></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">sendfileSize</code></td><td>
|
|
If the connector used supports sendfile, this represents the minimal
|
|
file size in KB for which sendfile will be used. Use a negative value
|
|
to always disable sendfile. [48]
|
|
</td></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">useAcceptRanges</code></td><td>
|
|
If true, the Accept-Ranges header will be set when appropriate for the
|
|
response. [true]
|
|
</td></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">showServerInfo</code></td><td>
|
|
Should server information be presented in the response sent to clients
|
|
when directory listing is enabled. [true]

</td></tr></table>

|
|
<p>You can override DefaultServlet with you own implementation and use that
|
|
in your web.xml declaration. If you
|
|
can understand what was just said, we will assume you can read the code
|
|
to DefaultServlet servlet and make the appropriate adjustments. (If not,
|
|
then that method isn't for you)
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You can use either <code>localXsltFile</code> or
|
|
<code>globalXsltFile</code> and DefaultServlet will create
|
|
an xml document and run it through an xsl transformation based
|
|
on the values provided in <code>localXsltFile</code> and
|
|
<code>globalXsltFile</code>. <code>localXsltFile</code> is first
|
|
checked, followed by <code>globalXsltFile</code>, then default
|
|
behaviors takes place.
