Initial Task in task pane, not working

[andrewd]

If I take a fully working WebLayout from 2.0.2 and put it onto a 2.2 RC1 server, the initial task pane setting is not being used correctly. I have a complete url in my setting (fully working, and accessible to the outside world)...using MGOS 2.2, that url is getting modified somewhere along the way.

It looks like what is happening is that MGOS 2.2 is assuming that my initial task is on the same server as the WebLayout. It is completely ignoring the "​http://myservername/" part of the url (even though it's different). Using Firebug, I can see clearly that the URL is truncated, even though the full URL is clearly in the WebLayout.

Other custom tasks work fine, but not my initial one, and thus, not the home button.

This is using the AJAX viewer (php).

What's an example URL that can cause this to happen?

Well, it seems a better question would be what's an example url that does work. I can't find one....I just tried "​http://www.google.com" and I get a blank page - when I click the "home" button in the task pane, I then get a 404 saying: "The requested URL /mapguide/mapviewerajax/​http://www.google.com was not found on this server."

This should be fixed with the fixes for #1227 and #1501
