[richardr_NQW]

Binary package hint: yelp

Originally reported with: Server 8.10 (Intrepid Ibis?) after upgrade from 8.04 desktop.
Reproduced with install of jaunty

1. Open yelp
2. Enter a term in the search bar
3. Click on bottom link - "Repeat the search online at the Ubuntu Help Pages

This opens up new browser window, at the address http://search.ubuntu.com/help?os=ubuntu&ver=8.04&q=LAMP which gives HTTP 404 error - file not found.

Possible solutions
A) change link in help file to point to correct space on server

B) put logical - re-direct virtual link in failing path

C) put copy of same information at link destination

I could not re-create this myself...

I didn't find your instructions very clear, I found the server guide but I could find no LAMP section and 2.2.1 for me was installation guide.

The 'clean' URLs given in the doc won't work on h.u.c search or on s.u.c, presumably they need some of the google gibberish in the URL.

This is a yelp bug, we patch that URL in 06_ubuntu_online_url.patch
