Hi all,
Webpshere, SQL Server 2008, Maximo 7.1.1.8.
We have a requirement to attach UNC paths to documents. That is, theoretically, use the Add a New Webpage functionality and add a link to \\server-name\folder\folder2
Two core reasons for this:
- Firstly, this would often be to a folder rather than a file
- Secondly, corporate documents may be stored centrally - we do not want to create a local copy that may not reflect updates to the corporate master. Unfortuantely, we won't have the power to insist that corporate use Sharepoint or similar.
With the default setup, attaching a webpage as \\server-name\folder\folder2 is then attempted to be opened as http:////server-name/folder/folder2.
I have also tried attaching the webpage as file:\\server-name\folder\folder2, which is then attempted to be opened as http://file//server-name/folder/folder2
I've also tried using the mxe.doclink.path02 System Property with a value of file<PATH> = file: This doesn't seem to function at all.
Any ideas? Any help would be much appreciated.
Jake
