How can i handle JSESSIONID in Nginx conf

Question

Im using Nginx as FrontEnd Server, and behind it a Apache Http Server and begind it a Glassfish Application Server :) My problem is, when i need a static context like;

"http://127.0.0.1:8077/directory-web/resources/defaultTheme/images/facebook.png;jsessionid=07ab5b915530738297010cbc0b5c.worker1"

when i request to "http://127.0.0.1:8077/directory-web/resources/defaultTheme/images/facebook.png" link, image returns me, but nginx doesnt know what is JSESSIONID.

In production, Glassfish will be in two cluster. Thanks.

What do you mean by "nginx doesnt know what is JSESSIONID"? What problem are you having - what does nginx need to do with the JSESSIONID? — Shane Madden, Jul 22 '12 at 21:52
Path to facebook.png is ; http://127.0.0.1:8077/directory-web/resources/defaultTheme/images/facebook.png (this ok), but do you know a path like this ....eme/images/facebook.png;JKDFBJDBVD ?? 404 STATUS CODE TURNS me by Nginx, coz its not a path only a cookie — Rahman Usta, Jul 23 '12 at 04:36
It shouldn't care what path it's proxying - how is your nginx configured? — Shane Madden, Jul 23 '12 at 06:05
in html directory static files stands. but, facebook.png;jsessionid=07ab5b915530738297010cbc0b5c.worker1" is not a file name — Rahman Usta, Jul 23 '12 at 06:57

you except all static resource, but i need only except ;jsessionidblablabla – Rahman Usta Jul 23 '12 at 19:47
`location ~* ^(.+\.(?:jpe?g|gif|css|png|js|ico));jsessionid= {` – VBart Jul 23 '12 at 20:17
but, it must accept jpeg,gif,css,png,js and ico for example : xx.png and xx.js?fgdfgjd but it shouldnt accept xx.png;jsessionbdljgdno – Rahman Usta Jul 24 '12 at 13:00
I'm totally confused. And what do you mean by `it must accept`? – VBart Jul 24 '12 at 13:08
**1.** `^(.+\.(?:jpe?g|gif|css|png|js|ico))(?:;.+)?$` - matches jpeg,gif,css,png,js and ico with or without `;something` at the end. **2.** `^(.+\.(?:jpe?g|gif|css|png|js|ico));jsessionid=` matches jpeg,gif,css,png,js and ico only with ;jsessionid= at the end. **3.** `\.(?:jpe?g|gif|css|png|js|ico)$` - matches jpeg,gif,css,png,js and ico only without anything at the end. – VBart Jul 24 '12 at 13:11
i need jpeg,gif,css,png,js and ico only WITHOUT ;jsessionid= at the end – Rahman Usta Jul 24 '12 at 13:21
But what else can be after `.png`, `.jpeg`, `.css`...? – VBart Jul 24 '12 at 14:17
after them everything can be but except ;jsessionBlaBlaBla – Rahman Usta Jul 24 '12 at 15:39
Could you give an example. This is just strange, and `;blabla` is something non-standard to the web. – VBart Jul 24 '12 at 15:52
Anyway, this is exactly what do you want .................................................................................. `location ~* ^(.+\.(?:jpe?g|gif|css|png|js|ico))(?:$|;(?!jsessionid=)) {` – VBart Jul 24 '12 at 15:59
bla bla refers to zero, one, or more thing – Rahman Usta Jul 24 '12 at 19:07
I understand what blabla is. =), but `;` is a non-standard method of passing things. – VBart Jul 24 '12 at 19:55
JSF uses this technic, can i rewrite url getting rid of ;jsessionBlablabla :) – Rahman Usta Jul 25 '12 at 06:37
You can, I already posted here four regular expressions for all possible cases. What's problem? You can write your own, `man pcrepattern`. – VBart Jul 25 '12 at 12:26
