A standard “Symply Lift” RestHelper example project features code, code.lib and code.model and bootstrap.liftweb.Boot namespaces. I’ve changed those to mycompany.myproject.code e t.c. Now the project compiles ok and Jetty starts just fine but I get The Requested URL /my/url was not found on this server error when I try to access what used to work just fine before the refactoring. What may I have forgotten to change? How should I change the packages names safely?

Changing LiftRules.addToPackages("code") to LiftRules.addToPackages("mycompany.myproject.code") doesn’t help.

UPDATE: I’ve found out that the problem was caused by the fact I’ve moved bootstrap.liftweb.Boot to mycompany.myproject.bootstrap.liftweb.Boot. I’ve moved it back and it is up and working again. But I am still curious how can I customize bootstrap.liftweb location as bootstrap.liftweb.Boot class differs from project to project and I don’t want all of them to have the same full name.

    You can define your own Boot class using LiftFilter Setup in web.xml as described in Chapter 3.2 Bootstrap of Exploring Lift.

    From the book:

    <filter>
    ... filter setup here ...
    <init-param>     
        <param-name>bootloader</param-name>
        <param-value>foo.bar.baz.MyBoot</param-value>
    </init-param> 
</filter>

    where your custom boot class class must subclass net.liftweb.http.Bootable and implement the boot method.
