JSF2 application not accessible without /faces/

Question

I have a JSF2 application I can access my application @ http://tvmteleshopping.com/faces/ui/manageProfile.xhtml

but when i use http://tvmteleshopping.com/ui/manageProfile.xhtml (without /faces/ ) this request is being served by Apache not tomcat. Any only static HTML content is rendered.

I am using Apache to serve static HTML files and tomcat for serving *.xhtml files

My Servlet mapping is fine: web.xml

  <servlet>
    <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet</servlet-class>
    <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
  </servlet>
  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/faces/*</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>*.jsf</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>*.faces</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>*.xhtml</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>

My cp_jkmount.conf to redirect jsp and jsf files to tocat server.

<IfModule mod_jk.c>
  JkMount /*.jsp ajp13
  JKMount /*.do ajp13
  JKMount /servlet/* ajp13
  JKMount /servlets/* ajp13
  JKMount /*.xhtml ajp13
  JKMount /ui/* ajp13
  JKMount /ui/*.xhtml ajp13
  JKMount /faces/* ajp13
  JKMount /*.jsf ajp13
</IfModule>

I have two cp_jkmount.conf, one in /usr/local/apache/conf/userdata/std/1/myuser/mysite.com/cp_jkmount.conf

and one in /usr/local/apache/conf/userdata/std/2/myuser/mysite.com/cp_jkmount.conf

And my both cp_jkmount are same. I don't know why i do have two cp_jkmount.conf in two different directories.

P.S: my application is working fine for those .xhtml files which are in root folder http://tvmteleshopping.com/index.xhtml

for this i think my cp_jkmout.conf works fine. But for those .xhtml files behind 'ui' folder it doesn't work.

Why don't you use

http://tvmteleshopping.com/manageProfile.jsf

instead of

http://tvmteleshopping.com/ui/manageProfile.xhml or anything else as the hyperlink?

Let the framework locate the page for you rather than you explicitly mentioning the path.
