Hello,
I was hoping someone else might have experienced the problem we're currently having. We just upgraded to Teamsite 5.0.2 SP1 from Teamsite 4.5.1. We switched our existing iPlanet web server from port 80 to 81, to accommodate the Apache iw-webd daemon, and the rest of Teamsite's architecture.
The problem we're having is this:
- When a user wants to send another user a URL in Teamsite, they send them something like this:
http://servername/iw-mount/default/main/dev/WORKAREA/kris/index.htmlWhen the other user clicks on the link, they are prompted with a Teamsite login screen. (This is an annoyance that was not present in 4.5.1, but we can live with it). After the user logs in, they should be automatically taken to the correct page. Instead, they get the following 404 error:
“The requested URL /iw/webdesk/loggedin/iw-mount/default/main/dev/WORKAREA/index.html was not found on this
server.”
This message is coming back from the Apache iw-webd daemon. The iwwebd error log shows the same:
[Tue Nov 19 10:26:48 2002] [error] [client ****.xx.xx.xx] File does not exist: /usr/local/iw-home/httpd/webapps/webdesk/loggedin/iw-mount/default/main/dev//WORKAREA/kris/index.html
The page does exist, and I've confirmed this by successfully viewing the page on port 81; served directly by iPlanet:
http://servername:81/iw-mount/default/main/dev/WORKAREA/kris/index.htmlWhat is even more peculiar is that if I close the browser, and paste the first URL into it, the page comes up perfectly fine. (This time no login screen is presented. I presume it detects a cookie, which validates my session)
I have tried trimming out all of my iwproxy rules. I've confirmed line-by-line the obj.conf file according to the TS Administrators Guide. I’ve double-checked the iwproxy/iwwebd sections of the iw.cfg file. If anyone else has seen this problem, and has found a resolution, I'd love to hear from you.
Thanks,
