Url-pattern in vaadin application

Hi,

I am trying to use "*.vdn" in web.xml configuration file for vaadin servlet and i´m receiving a red box with the text message: "communication error ..."

My web.xml...

<servlet>
        <servlet-name>VaadinApplication</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>com.vaadin.terminal.gwt.server.ApplicationServlet</servlet-class>
        <init-param>
            <param-name>application</param-name>
            <param-value>com.sinais.midas.vaadin.Consulta</param-value>
        </init-param>
        <load-on-startup>3</load-on-startup>
    </servlet>

    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>VaadinApplication</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>*.vdn</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>


    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>VaadinApplication</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/VAADIN/*</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>

if i use the url-pattern "/consulta/*" it works. This application runs into other web application and is inserted in jsp via iframe tag :

<iframe id="xxx" width="100%" height="500" 
           marginwidth="10px" marginheight="10px" frameborder="0" 
           src="consulta.vdn">
</iframe>

any help?

Hi Norival,

Im afraid you cannot use *.vdn pattern - this is because a number of Vaadin resources are mapped to your application context, for instance, window url's , image resources url's and so on, so some-name/* pattern should always be used.

Why can't use use /consulta/* mapping and the folloing url in your iframe - src="/consulta/" ?

Dmitri, Thanks for answering the post.
Yes, with "/consulta" it works perfectly. I will use this way now and everything will be ok.
