    1. You created a template that contains some hyperlinks
    2. You apply the template to a Java Server Page

    added before, in the middle or at the end of the hyperlink in
    the resulting JSP.

    ****************************************************************
    When applying templates to JSP files that contains external
    links and/or same page links the application name is being
    appended to those links causing and broken and undesired
    navigational problems in the hosted JSP.
    

Problem conclusion

  • In templates, external URLs or links to the same
    page/template should not include the application name when
    expanding code templates in hosted web pages (JSPs).  The
    fix for this APAR is included in Rational Application
    Developer v8.0.4.1.
