Re: SharePoint Path Mapping not working

[Frank Brendel]

Hi Karl,

unfortunately SharePoint doesn't provide a field 'url'.
And the problem persists even if I change the attribute name to, lets 
say 'myurl'.

Ah, ok, so basically you are saying that the UI is broken.  That 
should be easy to confirm.

FWIW, there is already a metadata field from SharePoint called "url".  
You can manipulate it by adding a Metadata Adjuster to your job 
pipeline.  So that might be a better way to do this.

    Hi Karl,

    after clicking on "Add Path Mapping" I'd expect either the
    accepted mapping or an error message.
    But I see only "No mappings specified".
    I've set org.apache.manifoldcf.connectors to DEBUG and I see lots
    of "SharePoint: List" but no "SharePoint: Path..." entries as
    mentioned below.


    Thanks

    Hi Frank,

    I am not sure what you mean by "nothing happens", but if you turn
    on connector debugging, you will be able to see what happens in
    the ManifoldCF log.

    >>>>>>
        // Add the path metadata item into the mix, if enabled
        String pathAttributeName = sDesc.getPathAttributeName();
        if (pathAttributeName != null && pathAttributeName.length() > 0)
        {
          if (Logging.connectors.isDebugEnabled())
    Logging.connectors.debug("SharePoint: Path attribute name is
    '"+pathAttributeName+"'");
          String pathString =
    sDesc.getPathAttributeValue(documentIdentifier);
          if (Logging.connectors.isDebugEnabled())
    Logging.connectors.debug("SharePoint: Path attribute value is
    '"+pathString+"'");
    data.addField(pathAttributeName,pathString);
        }
        else
          Logging.connectors.debug("SharePoint: Path attribute name
    is null");

        Hello,

        I cannot add a path mapping to the SharePoint connector.

        In the jobs metadata tab I've configured a metadata rule:

        Path match: /*
        Action: include
        All metadata: true

        Now I want a new attribute 'url' that contains the complete
        URL to the SharePoint source and not only the path.
        Therefore I set the attribute name to 'url' and try to add a
        path mapping

        Match regexp: (.*)
        Replace string: http:\/\/host:port$(1)
        <http:%5C/%5C/host:port$%281%29>

        But nothing happens. Why?


        Thank you
        Frank
