I am trying to copy a joomla website to a sub domain of a website: http://sub.domain.com. Database and everything seems fine. When I access http://sub.domain.com, the website is automatically redirected to: http://sub.domain.com/en/index.php and the error is:
The page cannot be found
The page you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.
Please try the following:
Make sure that the Web site address displayed in the address bar of your browser is spelled and formatted correctly.
If you reached this page by clicking a link, contact the Web site administrator to alert them that the link is incorrectly formatted.
Click the Back button to try another link.
HTTP Error 404 - File or directory not found.
Internet Information Services (IIS)
Technical Information (for support personnel)
Go to Microsoft Product Support Services and perform a title search for the words HTTP and 404.
Open IIS Help, which is accessible in IIS Manager (inetmgr), and search for topics titled Web Site Setup, Common Administrative Tasks, and About Custom Error Messages.
Yes, I deploy the joomla site on an IIS server but I am sure it is running both for php as well as asp.net.
Any idea about this auto-redirection and how can I solve this?
For me the solution was to TURN OFF Search engine friendly URL's.
After installing Joomla it was turned on. I already tried the above options. no result.
When hovering my mouse over the second menubutton I did not see the the php code to that article in the left lower corner of my browser but just mywebsite/folder1/folder2/
and not something like : index.php?options=com and so on.....
So I tried to switch OFF the Search engine friendly URL's after I already had the articles, categories and menu's. And it worked.
After reading all your comments, I can give this suggestion:
Knowing that the previous server wasn't an IIS, and when you said it was in a Linux, probably it was an Apache server, then follow these steps:
Enter the administration area by going to http://sub.domain.com/administrator/
Select "Global Configuration", and select the "Site" tab;
Go to the right column and in the "Use URL rewriting" select "no".
If you don't have more than one language, you can do the following (in this example, the English language will be the default):
(in the administration area) Go to the menu "Extensions" and select "Language Manager", go to the "Installed - Site" tab;
Select (click in the checkbox) the english language and click "Default" (this assumes that there are more than one language in this screen).
Go to the menu "Extensions" and select "Plug-in Manager";
Select "System - Language Filter", and disable it.

I want to make a bilingual site but i don't want to do it the "normal" Wix way with buttons because i want to have a drop down menu so I have created 2 sites( one will be on the domain and the other one on a sub domain) and added 2 language images on the sites that I want to link. And this is where i have ran into a problem.
I don't know hot to link from one site to another. Does anyone know the answer to this?
I have tried this but I can't find how to link to other site.
it ca be done with code but there is no need. when you click on link "page" means pages on this site. just pick 'web address' see this link menu. if for some reason you have to it with code you can use wixLocation.to see here
I have a website that has several language versions.
One of them is in hebrew and there i have the following problem.
The main menu items work fine with category blog or single contact but show a "404 error" page if you click on a "single article" type of menu item.
I disabled the SEF and URL rewriting options in global configuration but it didn't help - the same error occurs again.
I have installed Hebrew language pack, also added Hebrew content language and enabled the language plug ins. Nothing helps. It is strange that it doesn't work neither with or without the SEF and URL rewriting options.
Can you help me solve this problem?

I am creating a Joomla website(Rockettheme template). The problem is that when I add it into the Google search, the title of the link appears as the name for the Rockettheme template, and I can't change it to the name of my website. Here is a picture of the google search :
How can I change the Ximenia-July 2012 Template Demo to the title that I want?
As Super Administrator, you should have access to the Global Configuration, which is where you can update the Site Title.
In the back-end Administration, go to your main Control Panel, go to Global Configuration, and in the first section "Site" there should be a field for "Site Name". Enter the name of your website that you want.
While you're there, you should also scroll down to the Metadata Settings and update your Site Meta Description with a short description of what your site is about, as this is used on the Google Search Engine Results Page as well.

Well I know your feel bro :)
OK If I guessed it correct,
you have to go to the main menu, in menu manager.
select 'home' menu item, and then go to 'page display options'
there you can find what you seem to looking for, viz the first input box labeled 'Browser Page Title'.
I'm using Joomla! 1.5.14 and VirtueMart 1.1.3
My codes are hosted on my website. But now that i wanna make changes, i put the codes into XAMPP so that i can run them locally and test it out first before i put them up into the internet.
The problem is, after i logged in as administrator (http://localhost/mysite/administrator/), whenever i click on any links (example: "Manage user fields", "Edit store", etc..), it redirects me to my live site.
If i edit from there, the changes will be made straightaway on my site (which i don't want to).
May i know which files and what are the codes that i should change so that when i click on the links that i want to make changes, it will still be in localhost?
Go to your configuration file in
administrator/com_virtuemart/virtuemart.cfg.php
Change the live-site URL from localhost to your live one.
In Joomla 1.5, I created an article. Before publishing it, I want to send a preview URL to my colleagues (they are not registered to Joomla).
I'm looking for something like adding task=preview to the URL and it would show the article.
It would be enough if the article would be normally published but would not be displayed on the main page in the latest news. I tried to set "Front Page" to "No" but without success.
How can I solve the problem?
Joomla! 1.5 doesn't have a feature like this and from the way it's built I'm not sure it's possible without modifying the core com_content files. You could try a search of the Joomla! Extension Directory to see if someone has implemented what you're after.
In the meantime if the article is turning up on the websites front page even when you've set it not to - then the front page must be using a Section/Category Blog page style rather than a Joomla Frontpage page. In this case you could find out which category is set to show on the menu item being used for the front page and then temporarily change your article to another that doesn't appear there.
Once you've got it in another Category you should be able to get a link to the article by doing a search from the front end (assuming you don't want to create a menu link).
try creating a new category called Preview and since that wouldn't have been assigned to any pages yet, it should not appear. If you have trouble finding the article then, you could temporarily publish it either on the home page or somewhere in the menu. Then when you have found and copied the url, you can remove the article from the home page or menu or wherever you temporarily have it appear.
If you should ever want several 'preview' articles appearing on one page, create a new menu item, assign it to the Preview category you made, and in System Parameters, click on Show Title: 'No' so it doesn't appear in the menu. I don't know about what shows up in Google for example so if it's sensitive data I can't say it won't show in search engines, it probably will.
It probably appears on the Front Page because as you say it's part of the 'latest news' module. You could also try removing it from the module feed, but a new category is what I'd do.

I just selected Section: "Uncategorised" and the article went out from the latest news. Hope it's not accessible any other way in the current setup (there is no search function hopefully). It's not a cleanest solution, but it seems to work.
