Hi, does anybody know how to specify a media URL for an add_on product located at a local dvd within a CDATA tag? ![CDATA[cd:///oes11gm-dvd/x86_64/CD1]] throws an error: adding add_on product failed whereas cd:///oes11gm-dvd/x86_64/CD1 works. But I need to put it between CDATA. Thanks, Jochen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+owner@opensuse.org

media_url is a CDATA element because you have the ampersand in the URL if you use ISO files on NFS. The XMl parser will complain then if it's not in CDATA. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer Home: http://www.suse.de/~ug - Blog: http://suse.gansert.net listening to: "She Is My Sin" by Nightwish -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+owner@opensuse.org

... But I need to put it between CDATA. What is the need for you to have a CDATA element in case you use only "valid" XML characters ?

Afaik only the following characters must be put in a CDATA field " < > $ & * @ " @Uwe: Or to formulate it in another way: Does autoyast supports a media_url as an CDATA entry ?

New subject: Antw: RE: [opensuse-autoinstall] media url within CDATA tag

Hi, I agree there is no need but I had the requirement from a customer who specifies it like that for HTTP URI's and it works. In the meantime we found a syntax error within our xml class which caused the error. Now everything seems to be working with the statement below: <![CDATA[cd:///oes11gm-dvd/x86_64/CD1]]> Thanks, Jochen

Hi,

does anybody know how to specify a media URL for an add_on product located at a local dvd within a CDATA tag?

![CDATA[cd:///oes11gm-dvd/x86_64/CD1]] throws an error: adding add_on product failed

whereas

cd:///oes11gm-dvd/x86_64/CD1

works. But I need to put it between CDATA.

Thanks, Jochen

autoyast will always put the media_url into CDATA elements when a XML file is created. For the user they are optional. They can be used and they work but they are not a must have. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer Home: http://www.suse.de/~ug - Blog: http://suse.gansert.net listening to: "Babylon" by In Strict Confidence -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+owner@opensuse.org
