[opencms-dev] Re name opencms servlet to /

[Johnny Xue | SYSVISION]

Yes that's a way to remove another /opencms/ if don't use apache mod_rewrite 
(we used urlrewrite before but now we use apache mod_rewrite ;-) )
Simply..
1. Download urlrewritefilter-2.6-src.zip (or latest version...)
2. Modify ../WEB-INF/config/opencms-importexport.xml:
   ===>
   .....
   <rendersettings>
	<rfs-prefix>${CONTEXT_NAME}/export</rfs-prefix>
	<vfs-prefix>${CONTEXT_NAME}${SERVLET_NAME}</vfs-prefix>

   <===
    .....
   <rendersettings>
	<rfs-prefix>${CONTEXT_NAME}/export</rfs-prefix>
	<vfs-prefix>${CONTEXT_NAME}</vfs-prefix>


3. copy urlrewrite.xml (inside urlrewritefilter-2.6-src.zip) to
../WEB-INF/urlrewrite.xml, and change....

  ===>
  ...
    <urlrewrite>
         ......
            ....
         ......
    </urlrewrite>

  <===

   <urlrewrite>
      <rule> 
	  <condition type="request-uri" operator="notequal">
           ^(/(export|resources|opencms-errorhandler|webdav|opencms|)/.*)$
        </condition>
	<from>^/(.*)$</from>
	  <to>/opencms/$1</to>
     </rule>
   </urlrewrite>

4. Modify /WEB-INF/web.xml...

  ==>
    .....
    <listener>
        <listener-class>org.opencms.main.OpenCmsListener</listener-class>
    </listener>
   ......
   
  <===
     .....
    <listener>
        <listener-class>org.opencms.main.OpenCmsListener</listener-class>
    </listener>

    <filter>
    <filter-name>UrlRewriteFilter</filter-name>
    <filter-class>
       org.tuckey.web.filters.urlrewrite.UrlRewriteFilter
    </filter-class>
    <init-param>
        <param-name>confReloadCheckInterval</param-name>
        <param-value>-1</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <init-param>
         <param-name>logLevel</param-name>
         <param-value>ERROR</param-value>
     </init-param>
     <init-param>
         <param-name>statusEnabled</param-name>
         <param-value>false</param-value>
     </init-param>
     <init-param>
         <param-name>statusPath</param-name>
         <param-value>/status</param-value>
     </init-param>
  </filter>
  <filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>UrlRewriteFilter</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
  </filter-mapping>
   .....


That's all
