DCT form: Unable to preview SSI files

TeamSite 6.5 no SP
Solaris 5.8
iplanet 6 SSI enabled with TeamSite redirector

Virtualizing SSI files works fine, however the TST previewing mechanism does not seem to work with SSI files.

Normally the proxy redirects a file via any preview (zz_tst_user*) files that may exist.
However when previewing a file that includes SSI components, those components do not go through the same preview process. So instead the current version of that component is showed instead of it's preview (zz_tst_user*) equivalent.

This seems incorrect as I would believe all files need to be previewed correctly.

EG
I have one file
/test.shtml

which includes an SSI
/component/ssi_test.html

If I virtualize /test.shtml, the page renders correctly with /component/ssi_test.html showing up.

These files are templated, so when clicking preview in the DCT form two files are created

zz_tst_username_1_test.shtml

/components/zz_tst_username_1_ss_test.html

however when zz_tst_username_1_test.shtml is displayed, /component/ssi_test.html is processed as the SSI instead of /components/zz_tst_username_1_ss_test.html

Has anyone seen this?.. found a workaround?..??

Does ssi_test.html even show up when you do iwproxy -d? If so, what does that entry look like? If not, is it in your apache logs instead?

Current Environments:
(1,2) TS 6.5 on W2K3
(3) Vignette V7 Portal on Solaris 9

Well I can't get to iwproxy -d from where I am, but the logs do show the files are being hit.

I guess you're right, ultimately I need to see if they are hitting the proxy. Either way it should work, so somethings wrong on the iwov end.

I've raised a support case for it. In the meantime, I'm simpy doing a generate.

Thanks
