Hi All,
All done. .htm files remain .htm files on the server.
The last step was to make sure that the SSI happened via the .htaccess.
Later we will need to purge the duplicates.

good news! Much less confusion. I knew we had a goodly number of ".htm"
pages but I hadn't checked what was happening with them until Andrea
brought this up.

I think that we can purge these *.htm duplicates, but if we do it
will be a "sledgehammer" build.
It will also be a problem, unless we accompany it with other changes: for
example, http://www.openoffice.org/pt/ would completely break, and all external
sites that now link to some of our .htm files would break too.
Got it.
It was intentional. Before doing so we would need to make a group
decision about how to treat the two types of files.
Regardless of what templates we apply, the best solution should:
1) Allow a .htaccess redirect/rewrite from .htm to .html (to preserve existing
internal and external links)
2) Have the SVN file names match the URLs: editing a file named "news.htm" in SVN should
not result in a change in a page with URL ".../news.html". The current handling confuses
the CMS too (for example, no diff is reported). So either we mass-rename files from .htm to .html
and rely on 1) above, or we don't change .htm to .html but publish .htm URLs.
We need only do (1) and I would do it within the httpd config like our existing
redirects. Regardless if there are both file1.htm and file1.html in the source,
one of these must be removed from the source svn.
Dave, Andrea --
Only ONE copy is in source, the "htm" file. The duplicate gets
generated from CMS -- but the new "html" is the most recent copy (on
the actual web tree) -- generated from "htm".
Could we fix our templating to just continue to allow for "htm"
instead of combing them as we're doing now?
It can be tried on a local copy. The prospective changes are required in lib/view.pm, but
exactly what these changes are I am "guessing" at this point.
It will be something about determining which type of page htm vs. html and then
make the appropriate call here:
I think, but do not know. If someone wants to experiment on a local build then
I'll give pointers, but I may not have time to check for a day or two.
I think you could define:
sub htm_page {
my (@r) = html_page @_;
$r[1] = 'html' if $r[1] eq 'htm';
@r
}
and then use that in path.pm.
Thank you. I'll give that a try in a few hours when I finish my work day.
Meanwhile it is likely that you will delay the JIRA issue. I'll keep you posted
both here and there.
Actually the r[1] line needed to be reversed.
Here is the patch about to be applied:

We can discuss the cleanup of the old *.html files later.
