404 Error with the Translation Script

**davesnake** · 24 April, 2009, 14:02 PM

Sorry to be a PITA Will.

It throws a 404 error when I click any of the flags.

Also it was not working with Yahoo either, was this fixed? I get a 404 error with the new version also.

And what does better subfolder support mean exacly.

Thanks.

This script isn't the easiest to use.

Can you post or PM me a URL?

I have not looked at the Yahoo translations in a long time, because of translation quality issues.

That was a bug fix where content in subdirectories would not be translated properly. That's an older bug and I don't recall the details at this time.

Probably best if i post in my own thread rather than hijack :/

I realised I have a htaccess in the subfolder my forum is in, if I remove that i get the following error.

The requested URL /translate/g/pt was not found on this server.

So why the script isnt generating the folder and then the cached page I dont know.

The script, in most cases, doesn't have access to create the /translate/g/ folder.

Once you create /translate/g/, what error message do you get?

**davesnake** · 24 April, 2009, 20:00 PM

I created the /g as per the instructions and 777'd it when i installed.

/g or /translate/g?

Even not looking at /forum, there is an issue.

This URL is from one of my sites:

Code:

http://www.be-a-private-investigator.net/lang/pt/index.shtml

Swapping your domain name for mine and changing index.shtml to index.html should make a workable URL for your site -- but instead it generates a 404.

/translate/g/

Yeah, even on my root i get 403.

**davesnake** · 24 April, 2009, 20:13 PM

You don't have permission to access /translate/g/ on this server.

or

<url removed> - error:403

My root is unmessed with, all i have is a index.html so it should be pretty straigthforward.
