ecommerce / giving blank page.

[BJ Freeman]

this is embarrassing.
I know I have given the answer before but I can't remember.
I have changed the ecommerce ofbiz-component.xml to / and I get a blank
page on a recent trunk
strangely I can put in /ecommerce and it works.

someone please refresh my memory.

Ok this is a controller change
        // Setup the CONTROL_PATH for JSP dispatching.
        String contextPath = request.getContextPath();
        if (contextPath == null || "/".equals(contextPath)) {
            contextPath = "";
        }
what was the reason for adding the / to this?
can the || "/".equals(contextPath)
I will submit a patch with a property in general.properties.

Mounting a Root WebApp

It is often desirable to have one of the webapps mounted on the root.
This is often either the ecommerce webapp or your own web site, which is
created as a webapp in an OFBiz component would be setup the same way.

   1. To set the mount point to root (or "/") for a webapp, find the
corresponding "webapp" tag in the appropriate ofbiz-component.xml file
and change the "mount-point" attribute on that tag to equal "/".
   2. For the default OFBiz ecommerce webapp, this is found in the file:

${ofbiz install dir}/applications/ecommerce/ofbiz-component.xml

=======================
this does not work.


note: should change the path from application to specialpurpose
