The web container rejects TRACE requests by default - with or without the security features enabled. When security is disabled, this can be worked around by setting
<webContainer enableTraceRequests="true"/>
in the server.xml, but that will not work when security is enabled. To ensure that TRACE requests are not rejected when security is enabled, we must override thedoTrace
method in IBMRestServlet.
