404 Error after register and import

Submitted by trigger571 on Sat, 2007-02-10 00:03.

Hi all,

I am a complete newbie on XML and pretty much on PHP. Installed Price Tapestry and uploaded my first XML file to the feeds directory. Completed all steps without a problem until I reached the point to view my files on /merchant.php . At that point after I click the Merchant link for the feed I uploaded, I get a 404 error. Any help would really be appreciated. You can see the file here http://hoteldeals.me.uk/merchants.php

Thanks

Hi,

This is because you have enabled search engine friendly URLs with $config_useRewrite. When using rewrite, the normal merchant.php URL is not valid; instead the rewritten URL must be used as follows:

http://hoteldeals.me.uk/merchant/

(this is the page that is linked to from the home page when using rewrite)

Apologies for the inconvenience; I'll update the documentation to clarify this.

Cheers,
David.

Thanks David, but it still doesnt solve the problem. If I go to http://hoteldeals.me.uk/merchants.php that page actually works. If I change to http://hoteldeals.me.uk/merchants/ I get a 404. My original problem was with http://hoteldeals.me.uk/Wishtotravel/ linked from http://hoteldeals.me.uk/merchants.php which still gives a 404. What would you reccommend to be the solution?

Hi,

The link is /merchant/ - without the "s" - here's the link to your site - it seems to be working fine...

http://hoteldeals.me.uk/merchant/

Cheers,
David.

Brilliant David thanks. Any idea how I can add some more Extra Fields on the registration step? 2 are not enough for my requirements.

Thanks again
