Description Kevin Doyle CLA 2008-01-06 19:33:34 EST
All Wiki links that contain index.php/Something are now broken with the latest MediaWiki upgrade and redirect to http://wiki.eclipse.org

Example:
On the Eclipse main page ( http://www.eclipse.org ) the Committers link is http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Development_Resources , but with the latest update it now redirects to http://wiki.eclipse.org

For links that are internal to the Wiki, is it possible to run some tool on the database to fix the broken links?
Comment 2 Eclipse Webmaster CLA 2008-01-08 10:56:37 EST
There was an issue with the short url rewrite rules and the methods for those short urls change between 1.9 and 1.11.

I've updated the rules and they now correctly handle /index.php/Page_Title.

I've not seen any issues with internal links on the wiki however.
