activiti-rest: Bad link in the user guide.

Wooh boy did I just have the most adventurous two days of debugging the activiti-rest app! In the end the root cause was that I hadn't read the User Guide in enough detail. But in my own defense I got sidetracked by the following sentence which turned out not to be true:It is possible to browse the

You're right, I have removed it from the userguide in trunk a while ago (post 5.7). Will be removed in 5.8 release.

I ran into this also. Glad this post was up. I am also having a problem pointing my browser to
http://localhost:8080/activiti-rest/service/login

I receive the following

Method Not Allowed

The method specified in the request is not allowed for the resource identified by the request URI

Greatfull for any assistance

Thanks!

Are you doing a POST-request? GET is not supported for that resource…

Hi friends,
I just cannot enter to the REST application page with activity-5.13.
Neither of these works:
<code>
http://localhost:8080/activiti-rest/service
http://localhost:8080/activiti-rest/service/index
http://localhost:8080/activiti-rest/service/login
</code> Which is the correct link?
Is it possible to get into the REST webapp page?
I get into the <b>activiti-explorer</b> page ok, with no problem.

Any help will be appreciated.
Andrea, Itely

We have a very detailed user guide that also shows all the service urls that you can use, did you look at that?
All your urls are invalid, only /login is correct, but that only allows for POST requests.

Best regards,

Thanks Tijs, for you answer.
I'm new to Activiti, and I like this world. So I'm doing my best to learn quickly.
