Hello Udo, Actually, some users of our application use these urls instead of the home page to call the application and this ends with exception or redirction to unavailable resource. I would like to know, if this is a problem of tobago or myfaces by determining the view id from the URL.
To prevent this behavior in our application i've used a servlet filter to redirect automatically to the home page of the application by using these urls.

In the link attribute of a tc:link or tc:button or in navigation rules? Or in links from outside of JSF? There is a part in JSF that "guesses" the view id from the URL and it might be a problem when using ../faces. What is the application case?
