[SOLVED] Zimbra adding an extra slash to links

[chauvetp]

Hi all,

One of our users reported an interesting issue which I have been able to replicate.

If I put a link to a page in an e-mail (just by typing or copying/pasting and not using the insert link button), Zimbra adds an extra slash at the end.

For example, if I type:
www.somewhere.edu/directory/file.pdf
The link in the e-mail after sending will be:
http://www.somewhere.edu/directory/file.pdf/

On the otherhand if I include http:// when typing it:
http://www.somewhere.edu/directory/file.pdf
The link in the e-mail stays the same.
http://www.somewhere.edu/directory/file.pdf
(I tried finding this in bugzilla, but didn't find anything. Wanted to post here to see if anyone knew if there was an existing bug report for this before filing one)

Hello,

What version of Zimbra are you running?

[chauvetp]

Sorry about that - we're running Release 5.0.10_GA_2638.RHEL5_64_20081003025450 (Network Edition).

Just tested in 5.0.11 and cannot replicate.

I checked the 5.0.10 source code, and it's a bug. It seems to be fixed in 5.0.11 and 5.0.12.

You can upgrade, or fix it easily by

editing:
/opt/zimbra/jetty/webapps/service/zimlet/com_zimbra_url/url.js

and find this line:

        escapedUrl = "http://" + escapedUrl + "/";

and change it to:

        escapedUrl = "http://" + escapedUrl;

and restart the server.

Good luck

Okay - I'll throw up 5.0.11 when I get a chance and see if its fixed there (didn't notice it in the PM site but might have missed it).

Thanks for the quick replies.

Sure- and just of note: 5.0.11 has been a very good stable reliable release for us.
