Thanks!

No, I meant "rewrite" because ProxyServlet has a "rewriteTarget()"
method that takes the incoming request URI, and converts it to a
different URI.
By default this proxy "rewriting" does nothing, so the ProxyServlet
making a request for the same URI would end up on itself, hence the
loop.

Can you please add your use case above to the issue, as a comment?

Finally, no matter how good the architecture and design are,
to deliver bug-free software with optimal performance and reliability,
the implementation technique must be flawless. Victoria Livschitz
