Hello,

I'm trying to get ARTIO JoomSEF v3.1.0 running with joomla 1.5.
I've been unsuccesfull so far.

Het homepage is showing, but when I click on one of the links internet explorere returns the "The page cannot be found" page.

I'm forced to use HTTPD.ini because my webhost only has windows servers..... I think this is causing the problem because I do not have a clue how to configure the httpd.ini file to get it working.

My joomla installatino is in the folder INT

I've added all information I have below.

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong??
Please help me!!

Jan

I found a solution by myself.

The httpd.ini I posted before is a copy of a .htacces file and therefore does not work!

Now I'm using this:

[ISAPI_Rewrite]
RewriteCond URL .*(/|\.htm|\.php|\.html|/[^.?]*)(\?.*)?$
RewriteCond URL .*(?!.png|.gif|.jpg|.css|.js)(\?.*)?$
RewriteCond URL ^/INT/(?!administrator).*
RewriteRule /INT/([^?]*)(\?.*)? /INT/index.php$5 [U,L]

I still have to do some testing, but it seems to work pretty wel!

Unfortunately I was a bit early with my celebration....

I did not get any error messages, but now all links are redirected to the home page.

So the question remains:

Does anyone know how to configure the httpd.ini file in order to get joomsef working?!!

you may test this httpd.ini config.

I really don't mean to hijack this post but has anyone found a solution to this.

I am running Joomla 1.0.12 on an IIS Server and can't get joomsef to work.

The URLS are SEF but I get "The page cannot be found error" on everything but the home page.

Hello,

well, the configuration for Joomla 1.0.x and 1.5.x may be a bit different in the content of httpd.ini.
Also, the configuration may be dependant on if you have free or paid version of the ISAPI Rewrite module and what version of it you are using.
Some general hints are published in documentation.
