Getting error : "resouce not avaliable"

[Jugal Kishore Mahendra]

Hi,
I am getting the following error when i accidentally hit a url of kind
http://localhost/example/main/home . The "/home" was accidentally typed
but instead of showing error.jsp page, It Displayed "resource(//home) is
not available.
After a lot of googing and going through project code, I found out the
the ofibiz container is trying to find the <view-map>   with name="home"
in controller.xml.
Is there any way of handling it and displaying the error page instead of
the text..

Regards,

what behavior do you want?
you can change the error.jsp that is the simplest.

Hello,


It does not sound like you are necessarily hung up with ofbiz here.
Or, to rephrase BJ's question:
What are you trying to do and are you sure it is in line with the
recommended use of ofbiz?

Your example shows that you should have a webapp called "example" and the
ofbiz default controler will not be matching anything here since it is not
called (unless you added a redirect configuration in your web.xml which puts
all calls for */main/* to */control/*. I don't think this is recommended for
ofbiz webapps).

The "resource not available" is the default message of the container when it
is not able to direct the request to a handler. So this usually means that
the servlet or JSP that renders the response (an HTML page) is not there.

My understanding was that  in order to even get into the "controller.xml
lookup" you would either need to specify the ofbiz appname (so it routes you
to the default path) or a url within that app's controller, namely:

either http://localhost/<valid-app-name-here>/
--> routes to default page of app
or http://localhost/<valid-app-name-here>/control/<target-here>       -->
target needs to exist

My understanding is further that the only event which will kick your request
to the error page is when <target-here> does not correspond to a valid
target in the proper controller.xml of <valid-app-name-here>.

So most likely either the container or the ofbiz servlet of the app is not
able to handle requests to
http://localhost/<valid-app-name-here>/<something-else-than-control>
/<target-here>


Let me know whether this helps you out.

Regards


Carsten
