Hi folks,
I added a new page as usual,
It can be found through a search on the front end (so must be in db)
I checked "options" and all seems fine ( active is checked, alias is the same as the page title, and it does "preview").
The html / source code looks fine.
1.1.2 "Savaii"
Cache is cleared, and page resubmitted multiple times.
But the page cannot be found after sucessfully saving.

Re: Page Not Found mystery
Hello,
BTW, do you have other working pages ? Can you add several other pages ?

Hi Pierre,
I added a new page as usual, about 30 in total. I even deleted it (the page in question) and went again with the same result.
Until now, I thought that this was a fairly recent stable release.
There was a reference in config.php with regard to legacy code: I changed this back and fro, but to no avail.
I can upgrade tomorrow, but fail to some how one page with the same parent can be any different from a page with the same parent( and without tweaking any default settings), very similar content (with regard to page size; I even deleted the gif in case of conflict (image format) that I may not be aware of).
Go daddy server (never again), but that is hardly the cause over three days??
As you mentioned about new pages: no problem so far.
Why can a regualr page be in the db (obvious by "search"), and yet it cannot be found?
ranks nl returns a 200 ok.
I don't get it, is all.

Re: Page Not Found mystery
okay, obvious questions:
a) the page is marked as 'show in menu' right?
b) the page is marked as 'active'
c) the page alias doesn't match a excludeprefix= argument in the menu call does it?
d) if all else fails, what's the page alias for the page?
maybe I can help after that.
When one page out of 30+ behaves differently, then it's either something really silly, or a bug.

Re: Page Not Found mystery
Hi calguy1000,
Active is checked
Show in menu is checked
Cachable is checked
The page alias is the same as the title, but the first letter is lowercase.
Excludeprefix ? I'll have to get back to you on that when I read a little, but I made no special selection of anything for this page than any other. In other words, settings were as default as with other pages.
The plot thickens.
The page title that I wanted was "Buoyancy"; -> www.mydomain.com/buoyancy/
This doesn't work (page not found) though it can be somewhere within the search function (but doesnt render)
However, when I made another test page with the title "Bouyancy" -> www.mydomain.com/bouyancy/ ; this works.
Okay, so how can a particular arrangement of vowels have any effect on this? (mis-spelling works, but correct spelling doesn't)

Re: Page Not Found mystery
I just created a new page called 'Buoyancy' and it showed up in my menu just fine.

Re: Page Not Found mystery
Hi Calguy,
by naming the alias as "buoyancies", the url of www.mydomain.com/buoyancy/ can now be seen.
The curious thing is the functional url of http://www.mydomain.com/materials/ has "Materials" as the title and menu text, and "material" as the alias (by default). So what is the difference, I wonder???
In other words, I can work around it, but the issue remains.
