Uploading a file
« on: September 20, 2014, 04:33:39 am »
For a reason (of Workspaces not having Custom Properties in recent versions), we are using an old version (1.7.5) so please bear with me. An additional burden is I'm fairly new to Feng Office.

Now, on with the question.  Whenever we upload a file/folder (from our file server) via weblink, our Feng Server always adds a prefix of itself "<server_ip>/fo_instance" to the file.  So clicking to open the file/folder always fails.

What we are doing:
1.  On the "Documents" tab, we will click on New | Upload a file.
2.  We will select "Weblink" (the other option is file) and provide the URI in the Weblink:* field.
       ex.  \\file_server\shared folder
       ex.  \\file_server\shared folder\some file.txt
3.  Check (and maybe) edit the New Filename.
4.  Click "Add file" button.

However, when opening the path or file by clicking on the link, browser returns an error that the requested URL is not found on the server.  Upon checking, the link has become:
     h t t p ://ip_of_feng_server/feng_instance/\\file_server\shared folder
     h t t p ://ip_of_feng_server/feng_instance/\\file_server\shared folder\some file.txt

*edited the h t t p prefix because the board does not acceppt links.

What would be the best solution so that when users click on the Url, the file or location will open either in the browser or in file (windows) explorer?

Hope to hear solution here.

Thank you in advance!
