[opencms-dev] link issue in OpenCms 8.0.1

[Raghu D]

Hi Micheal,

        Thank you for your response. 

        Actually we upgraded the OpenCms from 7.5.2 to 8.0.1 . The link is 
working fine before the upgrade .However after upgraded to 8.0.1 only , we 
are facing this issue. Also , we compared the OpenCms xml files used in 
7.5.2 and 8.0.1 and it seems all the files are identical. Could you please 
advise whether we need to modify any entries in the OpenCms xml files.

Thanks and Regards,

Raghu D

Raghu,

for performance reasons, OpenCms automatically exports binary files 
(images, pdf, office docs) when being in the ONLINE project.

So if your file is stored in the VFS at "/IN/hotel/TajHotel.pdf", the 
URL for it will be (in a default OpenCms installation)

Offline: http://[servername]/opencms/opencms/IN/hotel/TajHotel.pdf
Online: 
http://[servername]/opencms/export/sites/default/IN/hotel/TajHotel.pdf

It is required that you use the <cms:link> tag in every link you program 
in your JSPs, so that OpenCms can modify the links correctly.

So every link in a jsp should be like

<a href="<cms_link>some_link_in_opencms</cms:link>">Link</a>

and NOT

<a href="some_link_in_opencms">Link</a>

If you do not want to have binary files exported, you can set the 
"export" property on those files (or the parent folder) to "false"


Kind Regards,
Michael.
