Title: 404 error
Post by: wickedpassion on October 25, 2008, 00:00:34
When linking from the destinations link on the front page destinations module I receive the error:

The requested URL /com_reservations/ was not found on this server

What's occurring?

Actually as an edit to this post every single link I click on receives a 404!!

You visited the site then, did you notice the large gap below the hotel rating, I spent hours searching through the sites CSS files to discover why it's doing this, do you have an idea as it's really starting to bug me now!

Many thanks,

Lee

Can I assume that the internal mailing system is private and not available to search engines?

As I seem to have a lot of interest in the site which shouldn't be occurring as I have not linked to the site yet!!

i suppose that PM is secure and invisible


i notice:

1st ie 6 displays properly

firefox opera might confused by the order that you call divs and the order style.css  gives them
they are in reverse order... in my experience this can cause problems in some browsers.
i am not sure if that fixes your problem.. but can try

also some position relatives perhaps would fix the problem, no one div have position information
so browser have to guess(?).. in your case with so many parrent div with floats it is likely this to fix the problem
i can not tell for sure because i can't test it.


this divs to be checked
/* photo */


/* date */


/* comments */


/* hotel description */




/* hits */

hope to helped you.

Hi,

thanks for your help with this it was however a Elxis Specific css mod that was causing the error with my template!!

/* div used to clear line */

I simply modified the specific element and now all is well,

:-)

Error 404 can be displayed under the following circumstances:

- You have enabled SEO PRO but you dont have a valid htaccess file.
Solution: Set the proper .htaccess file (rename the Elxis default htaccess.txt to .htaccess).

- You have enabled SEO PRO and your htaccess file is fine but for one particular component you get error 404.
Solution: The SEO PRO extension for that component could not be copied (due to permissions issue) during the installation procedure to the includes/seopro/ directory. Copy-paste the seo pro extension to the proper directory.
Especially for IOS Reservations, copy:
administrator/components/com_reservations/includes/seopro.com_reservations.php
to folder:
includes/seopro/
renamed as com_reservations.php
So, at the end you will have the SEO PRO extension as:
includes/seopro/com_reservations.php
