I'm using SharePoint Designer 2010 against a SharePoint 2010 "Publishing Portal" site collection.

When I update an image in the "PublishingImages" library and check it in, I get prompted as usual that the item requires content approval and answer "yes" to the dialog and get a 404 page - page not found.

This only happens for the "PublishingImages" picture library. It doesn't happen in the master pages or page layout libraries.

Looking at the 404 URL: http://dev.testsite.org/PublishingImages/Forms/my-sub.aspx?RootFolder=PublishingImages

I noticed that it is using the forms page "my-sub.aspx". Looking in the "PublishingImages" folder "forms", I see one called "mysubmissions.aspx".

So, I copied the aspx file "mysubmissions.aspx" and created "my-sub.aspx" and all is well on approval linking from SharePoint Designer 2010.

That resolves it, but I don't want to do this for every site I build. Is this a defect in SharePoint Designer 2010? Or is it related somehow to they way the site was built out?

Was this site upgraded from MOSS 2007? – John Koerner Sep 17 '11 at 0:35
No, fresh install. Thanks. – CodeKong Sep 29 '11 at 18:05
