Re: [Cppcms-users] CppCMS-Embedded web root

[Rodrigo E. <rod...@gm...>]

I think that I need to explain better what I would like expect from the
CppCms. I have a little application that I wrote in Java and have specific
urls indexed by google:
    http://domain.com/ --> reflects the main page
    http://domain.com/[others-pretty-url] --> reflects each functions of
the application.
The application urls were indexed by google, and I don't want to lose these
urls. I need to rewrite this application in C++ and I decided to use
CppCms. Then I expect to use the same URLs as were indexed by Google. The
main page need to responds the root url (http://domain.com/) and the other
urls need respond like pretty urls (http://domain.com/some-pretty-url).

I did as Artyom tells me to do. Changing the rewrite rules as below:

change:

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

for this:

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

Immediately resolved the problem with the root url, but the rest of urls
stop to work because the server takes the part after the "/" and
concatenates with the /mb.fcgi. Unhappily  there isn't any url with no "/"
before them.
I tried overcome that  changing the dispatcher configuration of the url,
like that:

I changed this:
   dispatcher().assign("/contact-form",&my_app::contact_form,this);
   mapper().assign("contact_form","/contact-form");

For this:
   dispatcher().assign("contact-form",&my_app::contact_form,this);
   mapper().assign("contact_form","contact-form");

Unhappily this changing didn't work.

Anybody has some idea how I can resolve that.
Thanks
