Broken links in the new website

General Other
1

Hello!

I’ve been checking the download links and some of them points to the old site structure and now looks broken. I’ve seen that replacing the initial ‘www’ by ‘plone’ then they can be followed.

The ones I’ve localized are, in Download->bindings:

In Resources->Tools:

In Resources->GUIs:

In Resources->Device Classes:

Finally, Community->News show a 404 error.

I don’t see any other broken link, but it doesn’t mean there isn’t.

Hi,

It seems that some pages are available only when you are logged in.
This is the case for the Community->News page.
The error is quite misleading here because page 404 is suggesting that the page does not exist.

This page should probably be public, isn’t it?

Some other pages should also probably be public, like when you click on “Read More” to get more information on Nexeya Systems on the Community->Institutions page. If you are not logged in, you will get the following error:
"Forbidden access
Error 403

You don’t have enough privileges to display an institution « NEXEYA SYSTEMS » "

I guess this information should be public too.

Nice web site! I like it! :slight_smile:

Hi Sergi,

thanks for checking the site and pointing out these broken links. I have fixed them all. Let me know if you find more.

Cheers

The PyTango documentation at www.tango-controls.org/static/PyTango is also broken and just leads to a computing page at ESRF. The “www->plone” trick works though.

Hello,
I am trying to understand how TANGO is working.
It seems that your last installation (here)is not up to date. Indeed, in this package we have the Pogo 6.2.5 but we can download the 8.4.5a here.
So, is-it possible to have your last setup?
Thank you

Hello,
all pictures of this page (http://www.tango-controls.org/resources/howto/how-install-tango-windows/) are disable.

hi,
I am trying to find TANGO software to download for Aerotech 3-axis motion controllers:
Specifically the Aerotech Ensemble Epaq stand alone model.

On the Aerothech web site they provide a link to the TANGO web site for this (was as of 28 March, 2012):

http://motioncontrol.aerotech.com/2012/03/28/ensemble-controller-now-compatible-with-the-tango-environment/

TANGO:

– but this link appears to be broken ! (not found !).

I am a beginner…
— If anyone can help me start up Tango to use with my Aerptech Ensemble Epaq, I would appreciate the help.

thank you,
rotovolo

This is not really a broken link but there is no need to start a new subject for this point.

In the Resources page (http://www.tango-controls.org/resources/documentation/kernel/), “TANGO Device Server Guidelines” (Download TangoDesignGuidelines-Revision-6.pdf (TANGO Control System)) and “TANGO Java Device Server User Guide” (http://ftp.esrf.fr/pub/cs/tango/tangodesignguidelines-revision-6.pdf) points to two distincts URL which seems to contains the same PDF (same date).

In Resources/Devices Classes, Elettra and ALBA are dead links.
CEA LIONS lab leads to the main page without any link to specific TANGO DS.

When searching for JDraw on the website, a link to http://www.tango-controls.org/community/project-docs/ is given but the link is not accessible :

Proxy Error

The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /community/project-docs/.

Reason: Error reading from remote server

edit : it seems solved.

Thanks for your comments,

I updated the Taurus/Alba related links and moved all the plone pages to this website or github.

There is a broken link in the “How to install TANGO on windows” page (http://www.tango-controls.org/resources/howto/how-install-tango-windows/), in the section 2 (Installation of TANGO) : http://www.tango-controls.org/download links to a 404 error (and is in text format instead of an a url HTML mark).

It should probaby link to http://www.tango-controls.org/downloads/binary/

13

On the page TANGO tools (http://www.tango-controls.org/downloads/tools/), the link to jive (TANGO Control System - Browse Files at SourceForge.net) does not work and link to page TANGO Control System - Browse Files at SourceForge.net

It should probably link to Download Jive-7.10.jar (TANGO Control System) or TANGO Control System - Browse /tools at SourceForge.net to avoid an error when jive filename changes (when jive version change).

Other links for other tools into this page seems to be Ok : for each of them, I got a file with good filename (I did not download and extract the archive I got this way).

Hi,

Please note: SourceForge is deprecated.

Up-to-date version of Jive (as well as other java based tools, except pogo) is now available in tango-controls bintray maven repository: https://bintray.com/tango-controls/maven/Jive

Source code is on GitHub: https://github.com/tango-controls/jive

15

Thank you Ingvord,
so it should link to GitHub - tango-controls/jive: Jive is a standalone JAVA application designed to browse and edit the static TANGO database. jive moved to https://gitlab.com/tango-controls/jive instead of Download Jive-7.10.jar (TANGO Control System)

16

I would rather use https://bintray.com/tango-controls/maven/Jive/_latestVersion as this link refers to the binary rather than the source code.

17

I have fixed some of the links

18

Yes, perhaps this could also be useful. Is it possible to show two links : one for binary and one for source ? Or do you think is it redundant with http://www.tango-controls.org/downloads/source/

19

The source you mention is so-called source distribution i.e. all the sources aggregated in one archive. This link will be changed when the next source distribution will be released.

Concerning the links to the binaries (updated) user actually lands on the bintray page with the description of the package and there is a link to the repository:

  • some of the Java packages provide -sources.jar file (actually every must provide - this has to be fixed):

Hello,
in the page https://www.tango-controls.org/developers/videos/ the 3 vimeo links are dead.
Note that we could probably use peertube to replace youtube and vimeo.
