Can't Get to online docs first time
January 23, 2008, 05:28:40 pm
This was already posted on once at http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,1649.0.html, but I have the same problem all the time.  When I click on HELP from the main page and then click on the Online Documentation link, which points to

Code: [Select]
http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC
I get this in the URL

Code: [Select]
http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Documentation+Home;jsessionid=07DC113D16189672AE7E52566DBD0609
and this message

Code: [Select]
The page you were trying to reach does not exist. You may want to try a search, or browse the site to find the page you were looking for.
On the same page, there is a link to the CiviCRM Documentation that also points to http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC, and that one actually works.  If I come back a second time, the first link works.

I finally recreated this behavior myself, using Safari which isn't my normal browser - and isn't automatically logged in on the wiki. It appears to happen when the CRMDOC "space" is loaded without specifying the space's home page - which results in a redirect to the home page.

So this URL causes the problem:
http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC

... but this one seems to work fine:
http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Documentation+Home

I've updated the link on the Help page.

Not sure if this has been addressed yet - it may be that a large number of documentation links are "broken" unless you're already logged into the Wiki.

Other threads reporting this same issue with docs:
