[Building Sakai] Issue with text/html files downloading

[Stephen Marquard]

Hi Jacob,

The issue with text/url resources is fixed in the upcoming 2.7.1 release and the  2-6-x maintenance branch. I'm assuming these were created in some way other than through Resources / Add Web Links as those weren't affected. 

Here's one similar JIRA: http://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-18922

Short of upgrading to 2.7.1 or 2-7-x, the smallest fix may be to change your kernel version to the latest released 1.1 version (I think 1.1.9) in master/pom.xml, though I'm not absolutely sure that that wouldn't create other complications.

Regards
Stephen

Hello dev list, 

We upgraded from Sakai 2.6.2 to 2.7.0 yesterday and are now encountering an issue where Text/URL resources are requesting to be downloaded as a text file that contains the link instead of opening the link in the browser. I've looked around online and unfortunatly have not been able to find a solution. 

About the only thing I came accross regarding something along these lines is changing "content.html.secure=false " to "content.html.forcedownload=false" which we have already done in our sakai.properties. Is there another setting / thing that I should look at? Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
