FAQPage Schema
How do I configure request routing in OFBiz using controller.xml?▼

To configure OFBiz request routing, you define request mappings within the controller.xml file that direct incoming web requests to specific application logic and views. This manages the request dispatch pipeline.

What is the process to register a new web application in OFBiz?▼

Registering a new OFBiz web application involves defining the webapp properties, such as its name, mount-point, and base-permission, inside the ofbiz-component.xml file. This establishes the component's web app structure.

How do I set up the servlet environment for an OFBiz webapp?▼

Setting up the OFBiz servlet environment requires configuring the web.xml file to initialize the web application environment, including defining servlets and filters for the component.

Can I modify security settings and access permissions when defining an OFBiz webapp?▼

Yes, you can modify security settings by specifying a base-permission, such as 'CUSTOM_VIEW', in the ofbiz-component.xml file during webapp registration to control user access to the application.

Why is my OFBiz request dispatching not routing to the correct view?▼

Incorrect OFBiz request dispatching often stems from misconfigured request mappings or missing view definitions in the controller.xml file, requiring debugging of the request pipeline to verify routing targets.
