You're using *var with a default value, and the magic *path_info on
top of that. All of these could interact in unexpected ways. It
would be better to make two or three specific routes for these cases,
and to use named routes for generation. That minimizes the ambiguity.
So do something like:
map.connect("home", "/", controller="main", action="index")
map.connect("wiki", "/WikiSystem", controller="EmbeddedTrac", path_info="/")
map.connect("/WikiSystem/*path_info", controller="EmbeddedTrac")
h.url_for("home")
h.url_for("wiki")
I'm not sure if path_info is strictly necessary with the second one,
or if the second and third can be combined. But it's a matter of how
long you want to take trying things out.
Routes 2 is slated to have direct delegation to WSGI apps, something like
map.wsgi("/WikiSystem", EmbeddedTrac).
