-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have not done this, but just some thoughts. 1) you need to start at ^/applicationname/control/ if your using any of the application that come with ofbiz, since there is a a control.xml for each application. and then direct to the application. so even if you removed the /control you still need the /applicationname in the URL I did attempt at one time to put all the applications thru one control.xml but ran into integration problems.
lets say you have only one application and you are not calling any other of the built-in screens. another approach is to use an apache front end and ajp http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/FAQ+-+Tips+-+Tricks+-+Cookbook+-+HowTo#FAQ-Tips-Tricks-Cookbook-HowTo-HTTPD you can use rewrite rules euronymous sent the following on 1/22/2009 11:26 AM: > Hi list... > Jaques correctly pointed to post my question here, instead of Dev: here it > is...Hope someone is gonna help us ;) Thanks > > Hi list > > we were looking around possibilities to remove the Control Servlet from a > customized application, in a way that the frontend will not contain in the > URL /control/. > > Is there a way to do that directly in the application web.xml descriptor? > That's just a strange request of one of our customers...for us it is > definitely ok to leave it ;) But you all know that customer request must be > satisfied (as much as we can)... > > We tried urlrewrite, without totally success.
