Link to QA Wayback being misdirected from ACT #664

Closed nicolabingham closed 2 years ago

nicolabingham commented 2 years ago

When clicking on the "Search QA Wayback" link from within ACT, the link is being misdirected.

For example, with this Target:
https://www.webarchive.org.uk/act/targets/141607

Clicking "Search QA Wayback" goes to

https://www.webarchive.org.uk/act/wayback/*/https://elmcip.net/creative-work/500-apocalypses

Which is then directed to http://prod1/act/wayback/archive//https://elmcip.net/creative-work/500-apocalypses

The correct link should be https://www.webarchive.org.uk/act/wayback/archive/*/https://elmcip.net/creative-work/500-apocalypses

We can work around this by putting the correct link directly into a browser but it's causing a bit of confusion for ACT users.

@anjackson is there an update on the status of this ticket?

anjackson commented 2 years ago

Thanks for the reminder. Looks like I fixed it on beta, but not rolled out to production yet. e.g. https://beta.webarchive.org.uk/act/wayback/*/https://elmcip.net/creative-work/500-apocalypses

Looks like I need to roll out an update.

anjackson commented 2 years ago

Hmm, rolled out an update and that didn't fix it. Must be the settings of the web servers. Hang on...

Note that direct links from GitHub won't work as expected, as the cookies are not kept in those circumstances, and you'll be asked to log in. However, from within ACT, the redirect works as expected now.

Brilliant! Many thanks @anjackson
