Summary

0002391: Ability to specify a config parameter that will ignore unknown servlets in web.xml

Description

Some webapps come with extraneous servlet mapping definitions that somehow do not have the proper classes included in the classes/ or lib/ (ie. OpenBravo or Confluence, etc). These extraneous mapping definitions are normally for development or testing purposes so when a production WAR is created, the relevant classes no longer exist.

Currently, Resin will not start up a webapp if it finds unknown servlets. In order to continue, one must manually remove each offending entry. This is ok if there is only 1 or 2 or 3. But if there are over 50 of them, the process is quite tedious.

I propose an additional config parameter under <web-app> where one can specify to bypass/ignore unknown servlet.

Something like

<web-app>
<ignore-unknown-servlets>true</ignore-unknown_servlets>
</web-app>
