I followed the webflow sample project with jsf (primefaces showcase), and have gotten it to work correctly. However, now I would like to remove the /app/ from the uri (http://localhost:8080/webflow-primef...wcase/app/home) so that when I access .../webflow-primefaces-showcase/ it will redirect me to .../webflow-primefaces-showcase/home (note the missing /app/). I tried changing the servlet-mapping in web.xml from /app/* to /, and I removed the /app/ from index.html, however the request still contains the /app. Any ideas how I can remove the /app/ from the uri? (using Tomcat 7)
