URLs in site.xml banner tags not rendered by site plugin if host not resolved
by "nslookup"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MSITE-338
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-338
Project: Maven 2.x Site Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-6
Reporter: Paul Spencer
Absolute URL's in the banner tags of site.xml are translated to relative URLs
by the maven-site-plugin when the hostname is not found by nslookup. In my
case the hostname only exists in my hosts files on a the Windows machine
running "mvn site".
In the example below, the generated URLs for bannerLeft will be absolute and
the URL's for bannerRight will be relative. Adding "badhost.apache.org" to the
hosts file will not change the outcome.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<project name="Maven">
<bannerLeft>
<name>Maven</name>
<src>http://maven.apache.org/images/apache-maven-project.png</src>
<href>http://maven.apache.org/</href>
</bannerLeft>
<bannerRight>
<name>Maven</name>
<src>http://badhost.apache.org/images/apache-maven-project.png</src>
<href>http://badhost.apache.org/</href>
</bannerRight>
</project>
It appears the plugin is validating the hostname. Is their a way of turning
this validation off?
