Question

Hi there. This issue has only been present since I have installed QuickMenuSkin.

When the Attach link is clicked within a topic the browser is redirected to http://twiki.url/twiki/bin/attach/WebName/TopicName but nothing is displayed in the browser itsself (blank page).

My access_log shows:

192.168.0.125 - - [30/Jun/2006:11:57:39 +1200] "GET /twiki/bin/attach/WebLogis/LogisTwww HTTP/1.1" 200 -
192.168.0.125 - - [30/Jun/2006:11:57:40 +1200] "GET /favicon.ico HTTP/1.1" 404 276

and my error_log shows:

[Fri Jun 30 11:57:40 2006] [error] [client 192.168.0.125] File does not exist: /var/www/localhost/htdocs/favicon.ico

which really strikes me as odd, since my TWikiPreferences set my favicon:

   * Set FAVICON = /twiki/pub/WebName/WebPreferences/favicon.ico 

The above errors are only logged when i try to attach via firefox.

IE access logs no errors but access =

192.168.0.125 - - [30/Jun/2006:12:40:47 +1200] "GET /twiki/bin/attach/WebLogis/LogisTwww HTTP/1.1" 200 -

This error occurs whether i use the quickmenu attach item or the bottombar attach item.

any insight here would be greatly appreciated.

Answer

If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

Just some further info.. if i click on "manage" of an existing file i can go to an upload page (although "upload" is quite a generous term - see my other issue QuickMenuSkinUploads). The URL i am directed to is: http://WebURL/twiki/bin/attach/WebName/TopicName?filename=cheers.gif&revInfo=1

BUT if i take away the filename and leave the URL the same without the params: http://WebURL/twiki/bin/attach/WebName/TopicName I get the nothing-ness i describe.

You don't state which version of the plugin you are using, but I believe this issue was fixed with latest release? (21 Jun / 1.01).

We downloaded and installed an updated version on friday (30 Jun) in the hopes that this would fix the problem but it didnt.

Sorry, I'm out of ideas then, I have been trying to provoke this by setting skin paths in various ways (user topics / global preferences), but with no luck.

A test environment at http://merlin.lavrsen.dk/twiki/bin/attach/Sandbox/TestTopic1?skin=quickmenu shows a working page as well.

Perhaps you have some earlier files still laying around disrupting the picture?

Well this is all interesting, after playing around with your link, i added ?skin=quickmenu into the code of view.quickmenuskin.tmpl, so it now reads

pageMenu.Add("%MAKETEXT{"Attach"}%","%IF{"context inactive" then='","%ICONURLPATH{"attachfile"}%' else='%SCRIPTURLPATH{attach}%/%WEB%/%TOPIC%?skin=quickmenu","%ICONURLPATH{"attachfile"}%","%MAKETEXT{"Attach an image or document to this topic"}%'}%");

which makes the QuickMenuSkin attach link work correctly. this even fixes my other issue QuickMenuSkinUploads

Thanks for your time

Now the only problem is remembering this for next upgrade

- Glad it works now!
