It seems that the lookup didn't gave the expected results ;) The current
redirect force the redirects to be on the same server, means that it
should be sent to the same virtual host.

humm This one is WEIRD, there is no point for the Container to ask for a
PUT! You should try to do the redirect with the FULL uri, like
Relocate -> location : http://www.foosite.com:8001/servlets/MyServlet
Btw, you should upgrade your Relocate frame, I fixed a port problem this
morning.
