    404 Error on live site

    Posted 13 years 1 month ago
    • I had this error below on one of my link/page that I updated

      404 - Component not found

      You may not be able to visit this page because of:

      1. an out-of-date bookmark/favourite
      2. a search engine that has an out-of-date listing for this site
      3. a mistyped address
      4. you have no access to this page
      5. The requested resource was not found.
      6. An error has occurred while processing your request.

      Now what I did is turned off the Search Engine Friendly URLs on the Global configuration.

      Question: How will I solve this on a live site?

    • Is SEF really turned off when you look in configuration.php and .htaccess?
    • Please reply with a direct link to the issue & create a new thread for each new issue.

    • Thank you Prim.

      Yes. the pages/links are working well when I turned off the SEF. But I want to turn on the SEF on the live site. I was using J-2.5 from J-1.7 (<--Did it cause the problem when I updated?)

    • It's always worth a try...

      Is SEF set up properly?

      Basic Core SEF:

      If joomla is in the root; htdocs, or public_html...

      In Global Configurations, Search Engine Friendly URLs Yes, Use Apache mod_rewrite Yes, Add suffix to URLs No.

      Change htaccess.txt to .htaccess.

      If it’s in a folder, you need to change the # RewriteBase / to reflect the path of your site.

      Change:

      # RewriteBase /

      to:

      RewriteBase /(the name of the folder joomla is in)

      If that doesn't work, search or post here:

      forum.joomla.org/viewforum.php?f=544

      If you are using a 3rd part component, contact the developer.

      I don't think that the upgrade broke your site :)

    • Use an FTP client such as FileZilla and then go to /public_html or /www or /wwwroot and if you have installed your site here, right-click on the .htaccess file and select View/Edit.

      Do your changes and push cmd + s to save.

      Toggle to your FTP client, it will ask you if you want to upload the edited file, choose Yes.
