URLrewrite filter and Tomcat

Post by eyles »

Hi guys,

im in the process of working with how users access my application and implemented URLrewrite filter into the tomcat server. http://tuckey.org/urlrewrite/

This works perfect but i ran into the issue and wanted the remove the unnecessary directory structure to access the login.html page for example https://myforte.com.au/Myforte/login

I wanted to remove "Myforte" so the web address would look like this https://myforte.com.au/login

I did some research and found that if you renamed the "Myforte" folder inside webapps to "ROOT" it turns that folder into the default. I applied this changed and got what i wanted so i could now simply go https://myforte.com.au/login

Only issue with that is none of my data was loading on any of the screens when i logged in, it looked like the system was still trying to reference /Myforte/.....

Does anyone know what i can do to resolve this ?

Eyles,
The problem is likely that you have missed a step when renaming the Aware IM folder. You have to do the AwareIM to ROOT change in several places (5 or 6 steps/places if I remember correctly) and search the forum for the complete instructions/steps.
