It has become apparent to me that my file permissions might have been changed through a back-up that I had to restore 2 days ago. This may have something to do with this problem. The file permissions in the com_sef folder are all 0644, as well as in the cache folder. Could anyone running ArtioSEF perhaps compare this with their files? Much appreciated!

I've had ArtioSEF runing smoothly on my system up until 2 days ago. I suddenly get several PHP warnings a day in my error log which read as follows:

[Mon Nov 12 02:43:21 2007] [error] PHP Warning: fopen(/home/../public_html/joomla/components/com_sef/cache/cache.php) [<a href='function.fopen'>function.fopen</a>]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/../public_html/joomla/components/com_sef/sef.cache.php on line 144

line 144 starts as follows:

$cachefile = fopen($this->cacheFile, 'wb');
if ($cachefile) {
fwrite($cachefile, $cache);
fclose($cachefile);

Is this perhaps a file permission issue?
Does anyone know what is causing this?

Thanks,
Chris

I'm using JoomSEF and wanted to modify some of the existing SEF urls slightly. Tried to get the old SEF Url to redirect to the new one in order to maintain the hits from search engines. I tried this by putting it in \"View/Edit 301 URLs\" as well as through \"View/edit SEF Urls\". Both of which don't work as expected, The old Url produces a 404 error. Does anyone know how this can be done?
