Hi,

We are using pmwiki-2.2.0-beta63.

It has been brought to my attention that many of the web links seem to no longer work. In one case I have over 17 links on one page alone that no longer work.

In each instance the issue seems to be the same, the url  is missing the ID number.  I.e. ID=12345 has become ID=
In the examples below I show the current link - which is now broken - and compare it from the previous change in the History.
In both cases  the original url was entered correctly on March 4th. I do not know whether the link broke today or anytime in between.
But I have an number of other examples since March 4th also.

I notice the weblinks that fail in this way are all of this particular type - ie. quite long and with lots of numbers and extra characters.
I have had no reports with any other  shorter links for example to www.example.com

The wiki is on our company intranet, hence I xxxx'ed some of the url but I have kept the format and string length the same.
I am not suspicious of any malpractice, and from the History list it does not appear that there is any user or cut/paste error.
 
As a guess - that it is something due to url length - I am trying to use a tinyurl formats instead - but don't yet know if this will work.

Would welcome some advise on how to resolve this.

Thanks

Graham
