URL Rewriting Not Occurring

[dj]

We have just updated Seam to 2.1.1CR1
We started to use the rewrite functionality within pages.xml.

We have the following pages defined:

               <page view-id="/pages/account/check.xhtml">
                    <rewrite pattern="/newFamilyAccount" />
                    <begin-conversation join="true"/>
                    <action execute="#{registerFamily.startEdit}"/>
                    
                    <navigation from-action="#{registerFamily.doAccountCheck}">
                         <rule if-outcome="exists">
                              <redirect view-id="/pages/account/existing.xhtml"/>
                         </rule>
                         <rule if-outcome="new">
                              <redirect view-id="/pages/account/new.xhtml"/>
                         </rule>
                    </navigation>
               </page>
     
               <page view-id="/pages/account/existing.xhtml">
                    <rewrite pattern="/existingAccounts" />
                    <begin-conversation join="true"/>          
               </page>

We are able to access /newFamilyAccount without issue and a conversation is started

After entering data that already exists in the database, we should be taken to the /existingAccounts (/pages/account/existing.xhtml) view.  We are taken to the view, however the URL shows: https://localhost/a/pages/account/existing.seam?cid=9.

We have tried several things and can't see to ever have the rewritten URL appear.  Does anyone have any suggestions on what we are doing incorrectly.  Thanks.

What is the status of this problem? I have the same situation in 2.1.1.GA when used in following way:

  <page view-id="/faq.xhtml" scheme="https">
    <rewrite pattern="/faq" />
  </page>

After setting scheme to https, rewriting stops working.

Can you post a complete example? I am not seeing a problem.

I have following link in some page:

<s:link view="/faq.xhtml" value="FAQ" propagation="none" />

and FAQ page is configured in pages.xml in a following way:

<page view-id="/faq.xhtml" scheme="https">
  <rewrite pattern="/faq" />
</page>

Rewrite filter in components.xml is also added:

<web:rewrite-filter view-mapping="*.seam"/>

Resulting URL link looks like this:

https://localhost:8080/faq.seam

which is wrong. Rewriting works OK on pages without SSL but fails in pages with https scheme set.
Any additional info needed? Full deployment descriptors listings?

I am experiencing this on GlassFish BTW.

Thanks.  I the code that creates the https URLs is incorrect.  I'll get this fixed shortly.

[hajdi]

Thanks a lot. Is there already JIRA issue created to track it?

[norman]

JBSEAM-3771.  I've just checked in a fix.  Let me know if it isn't working as expected.

In what Seam version it is/will be fixed? Fix version field is empty in JIRA issue.
