You say your system in running 2.8.1. But does it have any plug-ins
installed which contain a modified _digital.html.erb template based on
an older release? A question mark is added by web browsers when
submitting a HTML form with no input fields. And that is exactly what
the non-thumbnail digital object button was until the 2.3.0 release,
when this change was made:

Hi all,
We just discovered something unexpected when creating Digital Object
Instances, which is that when a DO Instance is constructed /without/ a
thumbnail URL--i.e. the DO Instance just has a single file version and
it’s the link to the actual thing—ArchivesSpace adds a “?” to the end
of that URL when a user clicks on it in the public interface. For
instance, if the File URI is “http://www.cnn.com”, then clicking this
link in the PUI will take you to “http://www.cnn.com/?” .
The CNN website still works with that question mark, but when we use
an ARK to link to a record in our digital repository,
“https://n2t.net/ark:/81985/n2dr2rt09”
becomes
“https://n2t.net/ark:/81985/n2dr2rt09?”
…which is an entirely separate page.
Is this a bug, or is this supposed to be happening? If it’s a bug I
can submit a ticket. We’re on version 2.8.1.
Thanks,
