Hello,

I'm using GetSimple 2.01 on my website (http://filmpl.toile-libre.org/getsimple/), but each time i click on an element of the menu i have a 404 error page.
Do you have any idea for solving this problem please ?
Thanks,

Filmpl
Your server doesn't seem to support .htaccess

If you disable fancy URLs it will work. (I opened some pages of your site by changing in the URL '/contact' to '/index.php?id=contact')
Yes, it worked ! Thanks a lot !

It may not be server's fault, but wrong mod rewrite's directive
Look at the url: http://filmpl.toile-libre.org/getsimple/
filmpl has moved his site to a new location (directory or a subdomain), thus directive
Code:
RewriteBase /getsimple
leads to 404.

changing it to
Code:
RewriteBase /
or even deleting whole line should do the job.

with friendly urls turned off, links doesn't point to domain/getsimple Wink
yojoe,

I believe it's just that filmpl removed his/her GetSimple test site. The homepage was ok when I looked at it.
hmm....access to .htaccess file makes me think, that there's no mod rewrite on filmpl's hosting.
It can be that apache isn't protected good enough, but I'm not that big optimist Wink
Yojoe,

Carlos is right : i have moved my site to a new location, but the problem happened before.

You're right too : my host server doesn't support .htaccess (they use lighttpd).

I’m not a lighttpd user so I can’t really help you there, but I might be able to point you in the right direction. Take a look at their docs, lighttpd has mod_rewrite support as well. If you create the right mod_rewrite rules for lighttpd GetSimple should work with Fancy URLs enabled on your hosting too.
Thank you for the information, Zegnåt. I’m going to read it.

And congratulations for your graduation !
