0006084: Mod_Caucho welcome-file-list handling produces 404 with DocumentRoot removed
Removing the DocumentRoot directive from our Apache2 vhost configuration breaks the handling of the welcome-file-list configured file.
If DocumentRoot points to a directory that does not exist, it works.
When removed it stops working and produces a 404 response.

mod_caucho doesn't handle welcome-file-list. That's the responsibility of Apache.

mod_caucho dispatches based on the servlet-mapping url-pattern. It has no understanding of which URL's refer to directories and which are synthetic.
