Test web application.

Hello,

The following exception is thrown during web application deploy on v. Tomcat 7.0.x including the latest Tomcat 7.0.35-dev (from trunk branch):

SEVERE: Unable to process JNDI URL [jndi:/localhost/Fragment%20Example/WEB-INF/classes/com] for annotations
java.io.FileNotFoundException: jndi:/localhost/Fragment%20Example/WEB-INF/classes/com

To reproduce:
1.	Deploy the attached application, which:
1.1.	Has a white space in its name;
1.2.	Includes a web fragment;
2.	The web app extraction is disabled (through unpackWARs="false" Host attribute in the server.xml)
Note that the fix for Bug 54249 should be first applied (to avoid other exceptions prior the questioned one).

I would like to propose a small fix for this:
A substring start position is incorrectly calculated based on a string in decoded form (e.g. “/Fragment Example”), while the substring itself is made on an encoded string (e.g. “/localhost/Fragment%20Example/WEB-INF/classes/com”). The proposed fix is simply to encode the string used for the calculations. 

Thanks and best regards,
Polina

For the record, Tomcat 8 is not affected by this bug as it uses a new resources implementation.

Thanks for the patch.

The patch has been applied to 7.0.x and will be included in 7.0.35 onwards.

Hi, 

Thanks for approving the patch. However I accidently noticed that the fix is not correctly working if the context root contains any of the characters:  ‘~’,’&’, ‘;’, ‘+’. This is because these characters are not encoded in the string returned by getURL().getFile() (unlike white space for example) while they get encoded by the URL_ENCODER.encodeURL() method. I’m currently thinking how to overcome this inconformity. 

Thanks and regards,
Polina
