After upgrading our 5.4 Ebase (via 5.5.1) to 5.6 we received an error in the application, stating a form's top JSP cannot be found.
In our 5.4 configuration (and 5.5.1) We had a Shared Web Resource that was used from our workspace
I found that this resource is hosted relatively from the webapps/ufs folder and we can choose to change this into a resource from workspace,
using the configure Web Resource Dialog.
Is there a way to do this in bulk, as we have a lot of forms that are set up this way and need to be changed, presumably.
We would like to keep these rescources in the workspace, so we can do version control, and only need to deploy in the workspace folder.
The same goes for images that are referenced, relative to the workspace folder

Re: Trouble rearranging web resources
Fixed it for now with a symbolic link on Windows. But for future reference, it would be better to fix this permanently and easier if we could do it in bulk.

Re: Trouble rearranging web resources
Hi Bart,
You should not have to change every reference to the resources. It sounds like it cannot find the location of the JSPs and images etc...
The web resources can be configured as:
1) Relative to the server.. these files should be put inside the UserData location on the system:
<Server-User-Data-Location>/Server/apps/ebase/webapp
2) Using a workspace reference... i.e the url will start with a $ws
for example:
$ws/Web_Resources/myjsps/top.jsp
This will look for the file within the workspace instead of inside the server webapp.
If you have had to change the location for each resource, then I feel that something has gone wrong when upgrading to 5.6.
Kind regards
Steve
