Re: file_download in 4.05 - new URL seems to have broken all my file links
So, Mary’s troubleshooting strategy isn’t going to work, any other thoughts? Can you replicate this issue using txp:file_download_list?

It’s probably connected to your specific hosting setup in one way or the other, not to Textpattern, as Sencer wrote in one of the early replies. Is there a chance that you extract the Apache access.log and error.log files for a time frame where the error occurs? You hosting support might help you with that.

No.

Re: file_download in 4.05 - new URL seems to have broken all my file links
I can’t see the 404 errors in my error log for some reason. In my raw access log, I found this (one example among many), not sure if it’s useful though:
82.130.8.194 - - [11/Jul/2007:15:42:23 -0400] "GET /file_download/50/226BW%28Digital%29-factory-R51-G47-B50.icm HTTP/1.1" 404 34
"http://www.andrewswihart.net/blog/review-samsung-226bw-lcd-c-panel" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.4)
Gecko/20070515 Firefox/2.0.0.4"So, I will try to get the Apache log if possible, or is that the same as the raw access log? And I submitted a support ticket to A Small Orange to see if they have any ideas. As I said, I have a barebones .htaccess file now, that looks like this:
#DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
#Options +FollowSymLinks
#Options -Indexes
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
#RewriteBase /relative/web/path/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^(.+) - [PT,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php
</IfModule>
#php_value register_globals 0And I turned off Hotlink Protection in cPanel. Thanks a lot for the help guys.

I made several request to your site, plus created a file on one of my sites with an identical name: It doesn’t work at your site, works at mine. It’s probably best to kick off the host’s support.
Of further interest: Accessing http://www.andrewswihart.net/file_download results in a formatted 404 page, while it simple returns a blank page with a response code of 404 on every other Txp site I checked.

“It’s probably best to kick off the host’s support.”
Are you trying to say it’s time to go to my host for support? Just making sure I understand the lingo :)

Yes, seek support at your hosting provider.

Got this error from the Apaches logs, I don’t think it’s related though:

Check the permissions of that /textpattern/tmp directory and its contents.

This is an error probably related to bit_rss, caused by problems writing its feed cache files.

Re: file_download in 4.05 - new URL seems to have broken all my file links
OK, I just figured out I had a plugin that was causing my problem. I’m using sgb_error_documents and sgb_url_handler, which are used with vdh_flickr to make clean urls for the photo gallery. I turned off these plugins, and now the file download links work fine, but I don’t have my clean urls anymore for the photo gallery!
I figured out it is the sgb_url_handler plugin that’s causing the trouble. It defines URL “schemes,” and I don’t understand exactly what it does or how it does it. Here is the list of basic schemes it comes preloaded with:
$schemes['_author'] = '/%_author%/%string%';
$schemes['_category'] = '/%_category%/%category%';
$schemes['_section'] = '/%_section%/%section%';
$schemes['_file'] = '/%_file%/%number%';
$schemes['_author_en'] = '/author/%string%';
$schemes['_category_en'] = '/category/%string%';
$schemes['_section_en'] = '/section/%string%';
$schemes['_atom'] = '/atom';
$schemes['_rss'] = '/rss';
$schemes['id_title'] = '/%id%/%title%';
$schemes['section_id'] = '/%section%/%id%';
$schemes['section_id_title'] = '/%section%/%id%/%title%';
$schemes['section_category_title'] = '/%section%/%category%/%title%';
$schemes['section_date_title'] = '/%section%/%year%/%month%/%day%/%title%';
$schemes['section_category'] = '/%section%/%category%';
$schemes['section_title'] = '/%section%/%title%';
$schemes['section'] = '/%section%';
$schemes['title_only'] = '/%title%';I tried fixing it by adding /%string% or /%title% to the following scheme: $schemes['_file'] = '/%_file%/%number%';, but it didn’t work. I will contact the plugin writer, it seems this plugin needs updated to work with the new file_download links in 4.05.
Thanks a lot for the help guys.

So, just found out that sgb_url_handler isn’t supported anymore, will have to live with dirty URLs for the moment until I can switch to gbp_permanent_links .
But, bottomline, that plugin was the problem, problem is solved, thanks again.
