In the past, i used to set

$TWiki::cfg{ScriptUrlPaths}{view} = 'http://foo.com';

to avoid having 'bin/view' in url's.

However, when doing this in foswiki, something odd results, and i get image urls such as:

http://foo.comhttp:/pub/System/ProjectLogos/foswiki-logo.png

Not Good (tm).

Work around:

$Foswiki::cfg{ScriptUrlPaths}{view} = '';

does seem to function correctly.

Hello,

I got it working nicely, so just my 2c: is your apache Alias/Rewrite configuration correct? You can past it here or compare with recipes in ShorterUrlCookbook .

It is not related to mod_rewrite or any other apache directive, the behaviour is observed in the raw html output.

When I look at this I cannot see an error.

The $Foswiki::cfg{ScriptUrlPaths}{view} is a PATH. Not a URL. I cannot see a bug here. If it used to work with a URL where it is supposed to be a path then it seems someone fixed an old bug, not created one.

I set this to no action
