Get friendly urls to work in Liferay

I wanted to enable friendly urls in liferay for my JSR-268 Portlets.

I configured the friendly url mapper as I was told in http://www.liferay.com/web/guest/community/wiki/-/wiki/Main/FriendlyURLMapper but somehow this does not work for me.

What am I missing?

My liferay-portlet.xml looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE liferay-portlet-app PUBLIC "-//Liferay//DTD Portlet Application 6.1.0//EN"     "http://www.liferay.com/dtd/liferay-portlet-app_6_1_0.dtd">
<liferay-portlet-app>
<portlet>
    <portlet-name>content</portlet-name>
    <friendly-url-mapper-class>com.liferay.portal.kernel.portlet.DefaultFriendlyURLMapper</friendly-url-mapper-class>
    <friendly-url-mapping>content</friendly-url-mapping>
    <friendly-url-routes>com/gentics/cr/portlet/content-url-routes.xml</friendly-url-routes>
    <instanceable>true</instanceable>
</portlet>
<portlet>
    <portlet-name>navigation</portlet-name>
    <icon>/icon.png</icon>
    <instanceable>true</instanceable>
</portlet>
<portlet>
    <portlet-name>search</portlet-name>
    <icon>/icon.png</icon>
    <instanceable>true</instanceable>
    <!-- header-portlet-css>/css/test.css</header-portlet-css>
    <footer-portlet-javascript>/js/test.js</footer-portlet-javascript-->
</portlet>
<!--role-mapper>
    <role-name>administrator</role-name>
    <role-link>Administrator</role-link>
</role-mapper>
<role-mapper>
    <role-name>guest</role-name>
    <role-link>Guest</role-link>
</role-mapper>
<role-mapper>
    <role-name>power-user</role-name>
    <role-link>Power User</role-link>
</role-mapper>
<role-mapper>
    <role-name>user</role-name>
    <role-link>User</role-link>
</role-mapper-->
</liferay-portlet-app>

My content-url-routes.xml looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE routes PUBLIC "-//Liferay//DTD Friendly URL Routes 6.0.0//EN" "http://www.liferay.com/dtd/liferay-friendly-url-routes_6_0_0.dtd">

<routes>
<route>
    <pattern>/content/{contentid}</pattern>
</route>
<!-- route>
    <pattern>/{instanceId}/search/{filter}</pattern>
    <implicit-parameter name="do">search</implicit-parameter>
</route>
<route>
    <pattern>/{instanceId}/search/{filter}/{start}</pattern>
    <implicit-parameter name="do">search</implicit-parameter>
</route-->
</routes>

The urls rendered in the portlet is still: http://localhost:8080/web/guest/home?p_auth=Yu81QQrj&p_p_id=content_WAR_genticsportlet_INSTANCE_R2HSaoL5RkHi&p_p_lifecycle=1&p_p_state=normal&p_p_mode=view&p_p_col_id=column-2&p_p_col_count=1&_content_WAR_genticsportlet_INSTANCE_R2HSaoL5RkHi_contentid=10007.33

The URL was created using the follogwing code:

PortletURL actionURL = response.createActionURL();
actionURL.setParameter("contentid", "10007.33");

It would be very nice if you could point me into the right direction...

I achieved to remove all params except the p_auth and my javax.portlet.action by using

<pattern>/myportlet</pattern>
<ignored-parameter name="p_p_lifecycle" />
<ignored-parameter name="p_p_state" />
<ignored-parameter name="p_p_mode" />

lifecycle, state and mode disappear from the url. But no way to remove the p_auth and the rest of the URL:

Following on from Adarshr has answered you can also get rid of the /-/ part by creating your own class that extends DefaultFriendlyURLMapper and overrides the method isCheckMappingWithPrefix so you get:

@Override
public boolean isCheckMappingWithPrefix() {     
    return false;
}

So you're URLs would be just be http://community_name.com/web/group_name/page_name/content/contentId. Then you set your class in the friendly-url-mapper-class tags. Which you can see an example of in this portlet project on GitHub:

https://github.com/DevJonny/Liferay-6-Friendlier-Friendly-URL-Mapper

~~ EDIT ~~

Thanks Prakash for pointing out that the old link didn't work.

Your route should start with the part after content as content is already part of the generated URL. The value <friendly-url-mapping>content</friendly-url-mapping> is used for that.

<route>
    <pattern>/{contentid}</pattern>
</route>

Also, be sure to change the DTD to the latest one in your *-url-routes.xml.

<!DOCTYPE routes PUBLIC "-//Liferay//DTD Friendly URL Routes 6.1.0//EN" "http://www.liferay.com/dtd/liferay-friendly-url-routes_6_1_0.dtd">
