I think I found the solution.  Putting it here for comopleteness.

In the $CATALINA_BASE/conf/context.xml file add the following to the
Context tag aka

It looked like this before
<Context  sessionCookieName="JSESSIONID_PAAS" swallowOutput="true"
useHttpOnly="true" >

and now it looks like

<Context allowLinking="true" sessionCookieName="JSESSIONID_PAAS"
swallowOutput="true" useHttpOnly="true" >

See that allowLinking attribute.  Once I set it up, I am good to go.
