Description Vivek Iyer CLA 2011-12-11 10:31:33 EST
Build Identifier: 

I was trying to get to http://www.eclipse.org/projects/project-plan.php?planurl=http://www.eclipse.org/projects/project-plan.php?planurl=http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/development/plans/eclipse_project_plan_3_7.xml

from the following URL: http://www.eclipse.org/projects/project.php?id=eclipse.platform

by clicking on the image: 

http://dev.eclipse.org/small_icons/mimetypes/x-office-presentation.png

and I got a page which said:

Unable to display the project plan because This project has bad meta-data: it points back to this page in an infinite loop. Please open a bug against the project website to correct this condition. Bugs can be entered at http://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/ .

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to above URLs
2. Click on image mentioned
3. Get message mentioned in the details
Comment 1 Wayne Beaton CLA 2011-12-12 12:26:51 EST
The link is specified by the project in an unexpected way (FWIW, this is hardly the project's fault as the documentation is sketchy). I think I can tweak the script to deal with this.
Comment 2 Wayne Beaton CLA 2011-12-12 16:17:57 EST
I've tweaked the script to allow some more flexibility in terms of how the URL is specified. Marking as FIXED.
