1: Xowiki: Problems with type XoWiki File
Posted by Nima Mazloumi on 09/11/07 12:26 PM
Hi,
I created a new wiki page and entered:

[[swf:test.swf|bwlquiz3_skin|-loop 0 -quality high -menu false -height 515 -width 640]]

Next I viewed the page and followed the new link to create the file and uploaded the file.

An new entry is made in the list of XoWiki Files:
Name:swf:test.swf
Title: bwlquiz3_skin

If I click on the title or on the edit symbol it says:
Error:
Page 'swf/test.swf' is not available.
Do you want to create page de:swf/test.swf new?

Why is that?

I am using latest code from oacs-5-3.

Using 'file' works for pdf for instance.

[[file:my.pdf|My PDF]]

Once uploaded the file it is offered for download. But There seems to be a naming problem with 'swf'. I named the file 'swf:test.swf' but xowiki is searching for 'swf/test.swf' and wants me to create a new page 'de:swf/test.swf'.

Fixed in the oacs-5-3 in a minimal invasive fashion. Note that in xowiki in oacs-head, link resolving is much more general in the sense that it handles as well .css and .js in a sensible way and uses simpler naming convention in the CR (see my mail to you from Aug. 13).

I wanted to use xowiki for production. therefore I was not sure wether to head or oacs-5-3. What would you recommend?

The versions in the oacs-5-3 branch are for production, the head versions for development (even, if the have some nicer features).
