1st check if cppcms::application::main is called (I think it should)
it is virtual
member function so you can override it.

2nd When you access to "localhost:8080" you get request GET / HTTP/1.0
it is mapped according to the rules to

   /mb.fcgi/

Than /mb.fcgi is matched and the path you get is "/"

When you map to "" you Require empty path and thus it does not get dispatched.

The correct is always to map to something starting with "/" or map to
"/?" i.e. last "/" is optional.


You can also use little bit different rule

Instead of this

{ "regex" : ".*" , "pattern" : "/mb.fcgi$0" }

Use

{ "regex" : "/(.*)" , "pattern" : "/mb.fcgi$1" }

Than none of your urls will start from "/"

it does not matter how do you do it - just pic and convention and stick to it.
