AW: [opencms-dev] scheduled task - publish "page" type resource

[Markus Strickler]

Hi Thomas-

I faced the same problem some weeks ago. 
What I did was patching com/opencms/file/CmsStaticExport.java like this
(sorry for not attaching a patch, but our CVS is down right now...):

        }else  {
            // this will be false if OpenCms is running from the CmsShell
            try{
            	if (cms.getRequestContext().getRequest() != null) {
	                m_servletUrl =
cms.getRequestContext().getRequest().getServletUrl();
	                m_webAppUrl =
cms.getRequestContext().getRequest().getWebAppUrl();
            	} else {
        			String context = A_OpenCms.getOpenCmsContext();

						m_webAppUrl = context.substring(0, context.indexOf('/',
								1));
						m_servletUrl = context.endsWith("/") ? context
								.substring(0, context.length() - 1) : context;
            	}

This should do the trick for publishing.

Greetings,
