I am trying to use the transparent proxy provided by jetty.
This is my web.xml
<web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" id="WebApp_9"
version="2.4"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd">
<display-name>Archetype Created Web Application</display-name>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>googleProxy</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.eclipse.jetty.servlets.ProxyServlet$Transparent</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>ProxyTo</param-name>
<param-value>http://www.google.com</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>Prefix</param-name>
<param-value>/google</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>googleProxy</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/google/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
and this is the pom.xml (I am using maven):
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

I expect the proxy to forward a request like this:
http://localhost:8080/JettyProxySample/google/search?q=hello
to this:
http://www.google.com/search?q=hello
But when I try that url in browser, I always get this:
HTTP ERROR: 403
FORBIDDEN
RequestURI=/JettyProxySample/google/search
Powered by Jetty://
Any idea?
Reading the source code helps. :)
The problem is, you don't have your proxy servlet set at the root of the web server, but inside of an application, thus your Prefix parameter needs to include the entire prefix, context-name of web application included...
Prefix/YOUR_WEB_APP_CONTEXT/google

Just to toss an answer onto here, do not use a milestone release that is years old.
I know lots of folks using the proxy servlet in both versions successfully, just not something that was from the initial migrations from codehaus to eclipse...there was a serious amount of code churn back then so I would not be surprised if this isn't working correctly for you.
