Paul McMahan commented on GERONIMO-1318: ---------------------------------------- Alan, there was some confusion about how the welcome pages would be updated. Please see JIRA 1364. http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-1364 > HTTP redirects for the geronimo.apache.org site > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: GERONIMO-1318 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-1318 > Project: Geronimo > Type: Improvement > Components: console > Versions: 1.0 > Reporter: Paul McMahan > Assignee: Alan Cabrera > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.0 > Attachments: GERONIMO-1318.patch > > The welcome application and the welcome portlet currently contain links to > web pages outside of the geronimo.apache.org web site (e.g. the docs in > Confluence). Since the destination of these links is outside of our control > they may go stale during the lifetime of the 1.0 console. So instead of > linking to those web pages directly the welcome application and welcome > portlet should instead link to web pages on the geronimo.apache.org web site. > The geronimo.apache.org web site can then redirect the browser to the > external address if necessary. This will allow us to change where the links > in the welcome portlet and welcome app take a web browser without actually > changing the installed geronimo server. > Ideally we could configure the geronimo.apache.org HTTP server to issue the > redirects. But since that requires administrative access to the HTTP server > we can use html files containing a <meta http-equiv="refresh" ...> tag > instead. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
