Item4248: Configure: Installed Plugins link is broken

Open up the "Extensions" tab and click on the "Installed Plugins link". You end up in configure with a longer URL. Releat that a few times and you get something like this:

http://example.org/twiki/bin/configure/TWiki/view/TWiki/view/TWiki/InstalledPlugins

I don't. I get a link to the topic in my install. Are you sure you don't have a suspect rewriting rule?

-- CrawfordCurrie - 16 Jun 2007

I get this on develop.twiki.org as well. After two clicks: http://develop.twiki.org/~twiki4/cgi-bin/configure/Bugs/view/TWiki/view/TWiki/InstalledPlugins

Error came from Item187 - href of link is relative to base, but base is not defined. I have removed the link.

Instead of removing the link, how about specifying a complete URL?

-- TWiki:Main.PeterThoeny - 17 Jun 2007

You can't specify a url on the site, because the url is in TWiki.spec and there is no way to find out the url of the site. There is no point in specifying a url on an external site, because it doesn't help you debug your installation.

I will leave this open for someone with more time than me to fix, but I'm dropping the priority from Normal to Low.

if "You can't specify a url on the site, because the url is in TWiki.spec and there is no way to find out the url of the site", then shouldn't this bug simply be closed now?

No idea, and I'm a bit short of time right now to check. -- CrawfordCurrie - 08 May 2009

marking 'no action required' based on logic and conversation above.
