I think there is a problem in perl_lib/EPrints/Plugin/Screen/Logout.pm for sites with multiple secure archives. The upshot is that

sub render_action_link

{

        my( $self, %opts ) = @_;

        my $link = $self->SUPER::render_action_link( %opts );

        $link->setAttribute( href ="" $self->{session}->config( "http_cgiroot" ) . "/logout" );

        return $link;

}

should probably check for the existence of https_cgiroot. We’ve bodged the code to

sub render_action_link

{

        my( $self, %opts ) = @_;

        my $link = $self->SUPER::render_action_link( %opts );

        $link->setAttribute( href ="" $self->{session}->config( "https_cgiroot" ) . "/logout" ); # note the https

        return $link;

}

which works for us, but which I suspect isn’t the general solution.

The background is that we have two secure instances, http://eprints.uwe.ac.uk and http://researchdata.uwe.ac.uk. Unless the change is made to render_action_link the logout link is researchdata.uwe.ac.uk appears as http://eprints.uwe.ac.uk/cgi/logout, which doesn’t work.
