I have been reading the javadocs for documentation ServerServlet (http://restlet.com/technical-resources/restlet-framework/javadocs/snapshot/gae/ext/org/restlet/ext/servlet/ServerServlet.html)
In deployment mode 3, the context path of the servlet is automatically added. That's what we call the auto-wire feature. This is the default case, and is equivalent to setting the value "true" for the "org.restlet.autoWire" parameter as described above. In modes 1 or 2, if you want to manually control the URI wiring, you can disable the auto-wiring by setting the property to "false". Finally, an "org.restlet.ext.servlet.offsetPath" attribute, containing the computed offset path used to attach applications when (and only when) the auto-wiring feature is set, is added to the component's context. Both autowire and offsetPath should do the trick... i am trying to figure out how exactly. ------------------------------------------------------ http://restlet.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4447&dsMessageId=3091619
