"Page not found" on all stories

Posted January 22nd, 2008 by DriggOut

This is probably something simple...but I'm a Drupal newbie so please bear with me.

Whenever I click on any story I get a "page not found" message. I have clean urls enabled and have done a complete category mass-recalculation and cron runs. Disabling clean urls does not fix the problem either. Cache is disabled.

Even after doing all of this and submitting new stories I can view category listings normally but clicking on an actual story link (i.e. http://mysite.com/Second_category/test_story) returns a "page not found" error.

My drigg was installed using the express install and imported mysql data and everything else appears to be functioning normally.

Any thoughts on what might be causing this?

Tags or Categories...

I had this same problem and after searching around for a few hours, realized that the links that weren't working had a category item that didn't exist. Now I'm not too sure but it almost looks like it took a tag name (admin->content management->news aggregator->>Drigg RSS Feeder->Automatic tags:) instead of the category name for the URL. Could this value, instead of the category name, be landing in the table drigg_node/safe_section field?

I got around this for now by simply adding a term that matched this table field to my categories and all the links worked right there and then. I'll continue to investigate.

Now I'm having this problem

Now I'm having this problem :-/ When I click '"add comment" that seems to work.. and then it displays all the correct urls at that page. I did recently mess around with the categories and such to get the rss importer to work.

I removed an extra

I removed an extra categorize I had and now it's not showing "page not found" anymore. I'm having another small problem but I'll see if I can figure it out.

Step 3: Configuring the modules

You will now need to configure Extra Voting Forms, User Karma and Drigg in order for them to suit your needs.
Their configuration interfaces are here:

* Administer -> Settings -> Extra Voting Forms.. IMPORTANT: tick the checkbox "Scoop" in the section "Node types that will accept karma:"
* Administer -> Settings -> User Karma.
* Administer -> Settings -> Drigg. Don't despai:. the defaults are likely to do just fine. Please note that the first two select boxes should contain "Section" and "Tags" respectively. Those are the categories you just created.
* Administer -> Settings -> Drigg - look&feel (Change the way some of Drigg's elements look). You probably won't change these at this stage. However, it's important to know where these are.
* Administer -> Settings -> Drigg - embedded objects management (Configure how embedded objects are treated). You probably won't change these at this stage. However, it's important to know where these are.

You need to click on "Save configuration" in every single screen here.

That usually helps for me. That, running cron manually from the status report or doing the mass recalculation has usually helped almost all my problems. Its something to try at least.

Thanks for the reply, all

Thanks for the reply, all the above has been done. I've also run the cron manually and done the recalculation.

Not sure what this might be.

Hi,

I'd love to have this one nailed. If anybody finds out why this was happening...

Page not found happened later

On January 24th, 2008 tamastar said:

I experience page not found but not from the start. I installed from the pakaged installer and everything was fine but later on as I added a new category, it started to happen; page not found. I don't think I can remember the steps that caused it to happen, but I feel it has something to do with adding a new category at a later time.

Interesting...

Hi,

There is a variable in the cache for the categories, which should be regenerated every time you change a category.

Now I wonder if that variable doesn't get regenerated when *adding* categories?

Will test it.
