when i try to go my administration page www.genchukuk.info/administrator/ , i get Joomsef's 404 page.

Here's my .htaccess:

Options +FollowSymLinks
DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(/component/option,com) [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (/|.htm|.php|.html|/[^.]*)$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule (.*) index.php
# Security x 2 #
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} mosConfig_[a-zA-Z_]{1,21}(=|%3D) [OR]
# Block out any script trying to base64_encode crap to send via URL
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} base64_encode.*(.*) [OR]
# Block out any script that includes a <script> tag in URL
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (<|%3C).*script.*(>|%3E) [NC,OR]
# Block out any script trying to set a PHP GLOBALS variable via URL
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} GLOBALS(=|[|%[0-9A-Z]{0,2}) [OR]
# Block out any script trying to modify a _REQUEST variable via URL
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} _REQUEST(=|[|%[0-9A-Z]{0,2})
# Send all blocked request to homepage with 403 Forbidden error!
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php [F,L]

please help me :(

well, i found the problem i think.
my administrator page was password protected, i removed password protection, now i can access.

I am using the same .htaccess and the SEF is working great- but I can't log in as the administrator now.

Even removing the .htaccess will not let me log in now.... ideas ?

Thanks

Hello,

have you tried removing the rules folowing the # Security x 2 # line? Those seem to be blocking certain URLs and they are not part of the standard release so maybe they contain some error and need a tune-up or so.

Otherwise I do not see any other reason why your /administrator should not be accessible. (unless there is something else causing some redirections)

Best regards,
Michal

Thanks for your quick response. Removing those lines made the url's not work and the Joomla template images did not load...so I must need them :)

I tried removing individual lines, but none of those configurations worked either.

I am able to access the Admin area this morning be removing the .htaccess

all I get is:
