What steps does it take to reproduce the issue?
On a Dataverse installation which has not been configured to enable RData, view a webpage for a tabular data file, click on "Access File" and select the "RData" option, for example here on the Harvard Dataverse (currently version 5.10.1) or here on the SODHA test Dataverse installation.
When does this issue occur?
When using a Dataverse installation which has not been configured to enable RData.
Which page(s) does it occurs on?
Webpages dedicated to tabular data files.
What happens?
After clicking on the "RData" option, users are faced with a 404 error webpage, as shown below in Firefox.
To whom does it occur (all users, curators, superusers)?
Everybody, I believe (I was running tests while logged in as admin on the SODHA test Dataverse installation).
What did you expect to happen?
Either to get a download prompt, or not to see the option if the program has not been configured to this end.
Which version of Dataverse are you using?
5.10.1
