Auto-generated PDF view produces erroneous links for supplementary files


Login to join this discussion, or follow the forum conversation!

We are experiencing an error that is specifically found within the auto-generated PDF view.


Finding aids viewed within the auto-generated PDF view are producing erroneous links. These linking errors are limited to supplementary PDF files that are saved in the user-pdf-dav directory.


The link structure for supplementary PDF files is typically:

https://oac.cdlib.org/data/13030/##/########/files//[filename]


But the auto-generated PDF view instead points to:

http://www.oac.cdlib.org/[filename]


Please note, this only affects the links from the auto-generated PDF view. The links continue to work correctly on the OAC browser view, as well as the HTML view.


We are investigating a fix for this. Please feel free to provide additional reports of this error in the comments. Thanks!


We have this issue represented in our Pivotal Tracker operations queue -- https://www.pivotaltracker.com/story/show/168771778

We will provide updates as we make progress to resolve this error.

We will be replacing auto-generated PDF format with single-page printable HTML option. Additional information is available here: https://help.oac.cdlib.org/support/discussions/topics/9000060588
