Description

I have an intranet application built on 4.1.1 which works correctly in tomcat 5 using either via http or https.
But after deploying it in an advanced server environment with an SSL accelerator card, an asset service related error message was displayed. I don't have the exact message, but it was something that "https://server/.../dojo.js" is not accessible. Sorry for this very loose description

I have found that AjaxShellDelegate contains several ILink.getAbsoluteURL() calls. When I replaced these calls with getURL(), the problem dissappeared, and the site still works correctly (with dojo components like Autocompleter).

My question: is there a reason for using getAbsoluteURL() in that class? If not then is it possible to replace those calls with getURL() to avoid the problem described above?

Thanks!
