SP 2010 adds extension to an image's file name when adding to library causing “double-extension”

Question

As of last week, something changed in our SP2010 server that transformed all image paths to: <filename>_<extension>.<extension>. I noticed some service packs were installed, but could not figure out how they may have inpacted. Not only did it update all existing file names, when i add a new image, it creates the wrong file name.

Here is an image I just uploaded, with a simple Name:

Yet for some reason, this image can only be accessed by the following URL. Notice the double jpg at the end.

http://intranet/comunicacao/news/PublishingImages/_w/01_rh_ricardo%20amorim_jpg.jpg

Any help will be great appreciated.

Answer 1

the _w is the web version of the image and has the url format you show above. If you keep clicking the images you should be able to view the original at the url you uploaded.

Maybe try typing in

/comunicacao/news/PublishingImages/01_rh_ricardo%20amorim.jpg

and see if it works.
