  1. Oracle Web Cache version used: 
    Oracle Application Server Web Cache 10.1.2.3.0
Copyright (c) 1999, 2008, Oracle. All rights reserved.


  2. The test page is a simple Struts action sending a URL redirect: 
    public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping map,
                                 ActionForm form,
                                 HttpServletRequest req,
                                 HttpServletResponse resp)
                                 throws IOException, ServletException {
        resp.sendRedirect("/testApp/index.jsp"); 
        return null;
    }


  3. Web Cache setup
    Origin server
    Host NamePort
    oas.host7777


    Site
    Host NamePortURL Path Prefix
    webcache.host80


  4. Test results

    Notice that Oracle Web Cache correctly translated the host name in the header and HTML page. However, the port number remained that of the Oracle App Server.
