The HTTP Gateway only works if the URI ends with a slash. if it dosn't end with a slash then the HTTP Gateway automaticly adds a slash. This Produces Errors in case the URI ends with URL Parameters.
/x/y produces /x/y/ --> works
/x/y/ produces /x/y/ --> works
/x/y?a=3 produces /x/y?a=3/ --> failure

Here is the setup

• 1 Fabric root container with 2 fabric local child containers
• 1 child container with restservice profile
• 1 child container with restservice profile and http-gateway profile

the CustomerService has a class annotation @Path("/") and the Methode "getCustomerByQueryParam" is only annotated with @GET (no @Path).
the path .../CxfRsRouterTest/rest is configured in the Blueprint.

blueprint.xml:

<jaxrs:server id="restService"
               address="/CxfRsRouterTest/rest" >
    <jaxrs:serviceBeans>
      <ref component-id="customerService"/>
    </jaxrs:serviceBeans>
  </jaxrs:server>

CustomerService.java:

@Path("/")
public class CustomerService {

   private final static Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(CustomerService.class);
   long currentId = 123;
   Map<Long, Customer> customers = new HashMap<Long, Customer>();
   Map<Long, Order> orders = new HashMap<Long, Order>();

   public CustomerService() {
      init();
   }
  ...

   // this is the method with parameter (@QueryParam) we tested
   @GET
   @Produces("application/xml")
   public Customer getCustomerByQueryParam(@QueryParam("id") String id) {
      log.info("got call on getCustomerByQueryParam with QueryParam=" + id);
      long idNumber = Long.parseLong(id);
      Customer c = customers.get(idNumber);
      return c;
   }

we have tested the following scenarios:

• http://localhost:9000/cxf/CxfRsRouterTest/rest?id=123 => dosn't work.
• http://localhost:9000/cxf/CxfRsRouterTest/rest/?id=123 => works.
• http://localhost:8182/cxf/CxfRsRouterTest/rest?id=123 => works.
• http://localhost:8183/cxf/CxfRsRouterTest/rest?id=123 => works.
• http://localhost:8182/cxf/CxfRsRouterTest/rest/?id=123 => works.
• http://localhost:8183/cxf/CxfRsRouterTest/rest/?id=123 => works.

Where the port 8182 and 8183 are the pax web port on the two child containers. So the last four tests did not go through http-gateway but rather they were directly invoked on the jaxrs service.

For more detail, please take a look at attached test case.
