PDF Export Retrieves Images From JIRA Macros via the Display URL and not the Application URL

XMLWordPrintable

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create an Application Link between Confluence and JIRA
      2. Set the Display URL to a non-existent address, or to a proxy address that is reachable from the client's browser, but not accessible from the Confluence Server itself (the whole point of having an Application URL / Display URL separation)
      3. Create a page and add a JIRA issue into the page
      4. Export the page to PDF

      You will notice Errors such as these:

      2014-03-22 17:57:51,167 WARN [http-8542-1] [confluence.extra.flyingpdf.ConfluenceExportUserAgent] getImageResource Could not retrieve image resource http://192.168.2.3:8614/jira614/images/icons/statuses/open.png during Confluence export
 -- url: /c542/spaces/flyingpdf/pdfpageexport.action | page: 1933317 | userName: admin | referer: http://localhost:8542/c542/display/GIE/sa+dasd+as+d+assad | action: pdfpageexport

      It seems that the getImageResource will attempt to obtain /images/icons/statuses/open.png via the Display URL, and not the Application URL. The Confluence Server is unable to reach the Display URL, hence, the error

      Workaround

      Set the Display URL to a URL that the Confluence Server is able to reach

            Ciao Fabio

            Thanks for your suggestion; we already added as a workaround the display-server-name in the /etc/hosts, which lets us at least produce the pdfs – without the icons ...

            I will discuss this with our reverse proxy specialists ...

            Hi Alexander,

            wainting for the fix, as workaround, I setup a rule on the server side so that each call to the disply URL will be redirected to the Application URL.

            Hope this helps,
            Fabio

            Is it a minor issue? Many our customers are affected by this issue. They CAN'T export pages, linked to JIRA issue, in PDF Format.
            It could be fixed just changing one line code. Isn't it?

            Thanks in advance,
            Fabio
