When users create user-friendly URLs that point to their workspaces or folders, by default, the name they specify is preceeded by the text string /novl/. For more information, see Defining a User-Friendly URL for a Workspace or Folder
in the OpenText Vibe 4.0.8 User Guide
Some Vibe 3.x administrators configured their systems to not use a prefix, but empty prefixes
are no longer supported in Vibe 4.x because that would preclude WebDAV support.
Other Vibe 3.x administrators customized the prefix by including a simpleurl.ctx parameter in the ssf-ext.properties file.
Starting with Vibe 4.x, this action alone is no longer sufficient.
To configure Vibe to prepend a different text string, you must do the following:
Change to the following directory:
|
Linux: |
/opt/novell/teaming/apache-tomcat/ webapps/ssf/WEB-INF/classes/config |
|
Windows: |
c:\Program Files\Novell\teaming\apache-tomcat\ webapps\ssf\WEB-INF\classes\config |
Make a copy of the ssf-ext.properties file then open the file in a text editor.
Insert the following line at the bottom of the ssf-ext.properties file.
simpleurl.ctx=/new-prefix
where new-prefix is the text string that you want prepended.
Save and close the ssf-ext.properties file.
Change to the following directory:
|
Linux: |
/opt/novell/teaming/apache-tomcat/conf |
|
Windows: |
c:\Program Files\Novell\teaming\apache-tomcat\conf |
Make a copy of the server.xml file then open the file in a text editor.
Search for the string /vibe.
Insert a new line before the line containing /vibe as follows:
<Context path="/new-prefix" reloadable="false" docBase="novl" crossContext="true"/>
where new-prefix is the text string you that you also specified in Step 3.
Save the server.xml file.
Stop and restart Vibe to enable the simple URL configuration change.
