Answer 2

You have to specify the defaults when creating the route (see dcaunt's post) OR specify all of the parameters in url view helper (category, controler and action)

Answer 3

$Router=$this->_front->getRouter();
$CategoryRoute = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route('category/:category/:controller/:action/*');
$Router->addRoute('category', $CategoryRoute);

Try adding a start to specify the existence of extra params

Answer 4

You should include the /* as suggested by solomongaby.

If not supplying all of the required parameters (i.e. category, controller and action), you will need to specify defaults.

You can do so as follows:

$Router=$this->_front->getRouter();

$CategoryRoute = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route('category/:category/:controller/:action/*',
    array(
        'controller' => 'index',
        'action'     => 'index',
        'category'   => null
    )
);
$Router->addRoute('category', $CategoryRoute);
