[opencms-dev] Start with folder settings doesn't work

[Mathias Lin]

As of 8.0.3 and 8.0.4, this bug still exists, as far as I can tell. I
also set a starting folder, but after login, always end up in the root
folder of the site.
(I haven't looked into the ocms code, just from my observation in two
different OpenCms installations).

So, I have looked into the source code and from my point of view it is a bug
- in class org.opencms.workplace.CmsWorkplace, method initWorkplaceSettings.

There is a check of existence of folder "Start with folder". But this check
is always performed using "currentSite", because of finally block on line
544: cms.getRequestContext().setSiteRoot(currentSite);

The check should be performed using "Start with site", which is read on line
516: String siteRoot = settings.getUserSettings().getStartSite();



As I see this bug is also in 7.5.x versions. The new version 8 has different
implementation of this check where it should be ok.

Hi all,



I have fresh installation of OpenCms 7.0.5, logged as Admin. When I set
preferences "Start with site"="/sites/default/" and "Start with
folder"="/demopages/" it works - after login I have desired site and folder
selected.

Then I created new site "zmach" according to
http://opencms-wiki.org/MultiSite_configuration_instructions. When I now
change the preferences "Start with site"="/sites/zmach/" and "Start with
folder"="/myfolder/" and  login again, the site is selected but the folder
is ignored - I am in the root of my new site.



Is it a bug or I created site badly?



Thanks and regards,
