[jira] (MSITE-669) site:stage creates incorrect structure when module paths contains sets of "../"

["Lennart Jorelid (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-669?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=327706#comment-327706 ] 

Lennart Jorelid commented on MSITE-669:
---------------------------------------

With the release of m-s-p 3.1, this issue can be regarded as partially closed.
m-s-p 3.1 provides the means to handle this problem, but not the information about *how* this should be done (i.e. what steps should be done to acquire a working multisite staged site).

This is particularly nasty since the steps to a fully functional staged multisite (using both site:stage and site:stage-deploy) are far from trivial or self-evident, IMHO. There were many partial pitfalls encountered on the way to a smoothly functioning site. 

I will supply a documentation patch, which is fairly detailed and - unfortunately - rather big.

> Given the module definitions given below, the site:stage goal produces sets of maps relative to the staging directory - i.e. outside of the target directory.
> {code:xml} 
> <modules>
>   <module>../../validation/validation-api</module>
>   <module>../../validation/validation-aspect</module>
>   <module>../parent</module>
> </modules>
> {code}
> The staged site should be fully included within the staging directory. It would appear that relativization of links for site:stage should take special links into consideration.
