Internal URLs refer to root, not to Mahara subdirectory

[Joost Elshoff]

We have a number of Mahara installations (19.04, 19.10 and 20.04) that have the same issue:

In various places, where a user clicks on a URL to save a page, or perform another 'saving' action, the process directs the user to a root level directory and then causes a 404 error, because of the way we distribute our Mahara instances.

Most of our Mahara instances are not in root directory installations, but in url.ofclientlms.url/mahara/ directory.

It should be possible to install Mahara this way, without having to install the software in root.

Hi Joost,

Thank you for reporting this. We'll take a look. These are very basic actions. We are not aware of this issue with other sites that use Mahara in a subdirectory. Let's hope it's just configuration.

Thanks
Kristina

Can you please answer a few questions?

1. Are these sites that you are upgrading? If yes, do you have this problem also on fresh installs?
2. Are these sites that you are moving to a new domain?
3. Have you made any other changes compared to 18.10 or older sites?
4. Did this issue just come up? After a particular security update?
