Hello again,
thank You for a prompt response.

1. Currently I disabled the component, so you should not be able to play with the site.
2. The links which do not work are all menu-based links at first:
for example
www.nexus-it.co.il/en/training/software-...ractical-sqa-i.html, which is perfectly working without sef component enabled, becomes 404 and is replaced with
www.nexus-it.co.il/en/training-a-coachin...practical-sqa-i.html

Regarding your quesction, RewriteBase points at /
and the Base Href setting is set to "Yes - Always use only Base URL"

Thank you again

Hello Artio,
I am very sorry if you have already answered this question before. I've looked over half threads and didn't find any answer, although similar question exists more than once.

So please answer, since this is a blocking issue right now for paid JoomSEF deployment
Joomla 1.5.10
JoomFish 2.0.2
JoomSEF 3.3.0

After enabling JoomSEF (including changing routing component from JFrouter to JoomSEF), new URLs are quite accessible. However, native urls (especially important for those based on menu structure) are not more accessible and render 404 error.


I've tried to enable system-backlinks plugin, as well as played around the settings of "Parse Joomla SEF URLs", nothing helped. The old URLs which are already included in google and printed advertising material are not accessible.

Could you please help with making native 1.5 SEF URLs accessible or at least 301 redirected to new scheme?
Thank you!
