This weekend my webserver wen't down.
Today I arrived at work and noticed my links ain't working. For instance: www.domain.com/shoes.html (shoes being the product category) redirects to a not found page.
I've noticed that www.domain.com/template_name/shoes.html works exactly as expected.
So what's up with that? How can I revert magento to not put the template name in the URL?
did you check you url rewrites? It is done by your sever, so the reset may have screwed it up
From your question:
SOLVED: add store code to URL was enabled.

I've been looking for several days now and the problem is stil there.
I'm running the following version of Magento :1.9.0.1
I do not experience any particular problem on local (using Mamp). But on my production server my cart page (beginning of the checkout process) is always empty no matter the number of items i try to add inside my cart.
I tried lots of different solution posted on many websites but nothing seems to solve it (since this is working on local it might be a server configuration problem).
Any suggestion ?
Thank you
(Ps: English is not my main language so i'm sorry for the poor syntaxe).
Are you able to login to the site?
Just check in the backend. System->Configuration->Web->Session cookie management
Whether there is a wrong value set for cookie domain
I finally found the answer. The problem was related to a theme template module. I remove the module and it's working now.

For me, Joomsef is working for most of the links. I have moved my website to a new host and it is showing 404 for only some links. My client actually linked using itemid only and these links are showing 404.
For eg : index.php?Itemid=216 is redirecting incorrectly. It is not taking the category section. It has to be redirected to healing/main-lessons.html, but it is redirecting to mainlessons.html only and showing 404. How can I fix this?
Only URLs in the categosy healing has got this issue I think. I have .htaccess enabled and Rewritebase is correct. Also there is no changes to any other sections as I copied the complete DB and site files.
Managed to fix this. I have added aliases for each of the link in this category. Used a php script to fetch all the links in healing category and this itemid links are added as aliases to real links . These is added to joomsef_aliases table and now everything is working fine. :)
I know that that similar issues and topics exist, however my issue differs slightly and none of the proposed fixes have worked.
I was accessing the Magento backend as normal. Approximately 10 minutes after that I could no longer access the Magento backend.
What I mean is that when I go to the admin url login page, I get a 404. However the 404 isn't generated by my host, it's generated by my webstore.
Everything about my webstore works as normal.
I've seen a number of fixes, mainly this one...
http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/207981/#t274443
I have a few main issues.
Admin Custom URL had been set (but not by me). It was set over a year ago when Magento was installed. It worked entirely fine until today.
I do not even have "admin/url/custom" and "admin/url/use_custom" in my "core_config_data" PHP table. It simply does not exist so I cannot change it. I looked manually for it and did a search for it. Nothing.
I tried updating the local.xml file and clearing "var/caches" and "var/sessions" but that did not work either.
I've been working this for hours and it's beyond frustrating. It's imperative that this be fixed ASAP because we are a fairly sizeable company.
Thanks ahead for helping. Anything at all would be appreciated.
First Check your Apache configurations
I know that you said you were only in the Magento admin but I would first check that apache was configured correctly. This is the first point of contact and you need to ensure that it's working right.
You need to locate a default Magento htaccess file that you can upload to your server. There's additional configurations that you need to make if you're in a subdirectory and also check to make sure that your mod_rewrite is working properly. There's an extensive tutorial on these things here, magento htaccess.
Make sure that you have the right magento admin url
I have to assume that you know what your magento admin url is, but of course I would double check that you're getting it right. There is an option in the admin area to change the admin url, you could have adjusted that on accident.
You say that you don't have "admin/url/custom" and "admin/url/use_custom" in your core_config_data table. This actually means that you didn't set the magento admin url from the admin area. However there is a third place that you can look for your admin url. This is in app/etc/local.xml but you couldn't have changed this from the administration area.
Did you turn off search engine friendly urls?
If you had been accessing your administrative area using /admin and then accidentally turned off SEF urls, then your admin area could have just simply moved to /index.php/admin. Of course you mentioned that you have a custom admin url, but I don't know what that is, so I'm giving examples with the default.
I can't really give you any more suggestions without more information. I hope that this helps!
Found this and thought I would post here since it shows up in google.

I have been on this issue for almost a week now and have been research all over the net for answers but i could not find one.
Problem:
each time i access the homepage of my site, it results to a 404 error.
ex.
http://www.domain.com ---> redirects to 404
http://www.domain.com/home ---> enters to the cms page that i set as my homepage
I have already run the magento cleanup scripts but it was not able to solve the problem.

Store Home | My Account
I've got a similar error and would like to post my solution here. The case was exactly the same for me: all the pages, categories, etc. worked perfectly, but the home page showed a 404 error.
I looked into the core_url_rewrite table and discover that there was an entry with the «request_path» field empty. So this entry was rewriting my base url and that was the reason for the 404 in my case. I just deleted it.
Hope this helps to other people.
If you are using the Enterprise version you should check the table enterprise_url_rewrite. The query below should help you:
select * from enterprise_url_rewrite where request_path="";
delete from enterprise_url_rewrite where request_path="";
Check the folowing:
1- System->Configuration->general->Web->secure
Base URL: http://www.your-site.com/
(be sure you are in the right shop site from the top left of the system)
2- System->Configuration->general->Web->Default Pages
Default Web URL: cms (yes just cms)
CMS Home Page: select your cms page
Default No-route URL: cms/index/noRoute
3- check your server has rewrites otherwise
System->Configuration->general->Web->Search Engines Optimization
Use Web Server Rewrites: No
4- something wrong with your .htaccess replace the file with the one in your original installer.
Because StackOveflow has this stupid rule that I must have a certain number of "points" before I can chime in on discussions I need to make this as a "new answer":
open-ecommerce.org's #2 also solved the problem for me
2- System->Configuration->general->Web->Default Pages Default Web URL:
cms (yes just cms) CMS Home Page: select your cms page Default
No-route URL: cms/index/noRoute
for me this was set to "index". No clue how it worked before, or why it was set that way, but after updating it broke and this was the fix for me.
Note that I did also truncate the 'core_url_rewrite' table as well in troubleshooting. If you don't change urls at all, or often, then that's no big deal. But if you are chaning URLs often, then you'll loose your 301 redirect history (all old urls will 404 going forward).
Open-ecommerce.org solution # 2 , worked for me.
I initially set my "Defaul Web URL" as the URL of the homepage. Similar to what I did with the baseURL but I was wrong.
I changed it to "CMS"
From there, it all works.
Thanks!
I've been trying to set up a CMS page in magento to be the home page, and it's just killing me - how hard should this be? no matter what I set up, I get a 404.
Can somebody tell me basic steps to set up a CMS page as the home page for a Magento install, living at:
http://www.mymagentoinstall.com/
I can't have the url key for the CMS page be empty, but setting the default page in the System->Config->Default Pages->CMS Home Page (which seems like it should work), still gives me a 404.
thx for any help
Hours of head banging later .... I’ve changed the parameter “Use Web Server Rewrites” on System -> Configuration -> Web from Yes to No. And it worked! My provider set this by default, so had to change it. Only downside is that I now get the /index.php extension added.
Did you check to make sure that the page was enabled and visible in your store view?
Ok - figured it out. In the System->Config->Web, the Default Web URL needs to be 'cms' (no quotes) - I guess that tells Magento to use the cms page instead of a default url.
In csm - pages create some html in the page, eg start simple with My Homepage.
Give it a name and take care the url is "home" (without the quotes.
Now go to system - configuration - web and select your homepage (name) from the dropdown where in lets you choose the homepage.
That should do it.
Your CMS Page Identifier should be home
I was running into the same issue. No matter what I did, the home page came back as a 404. I had it working on a test server (with a different database) and compared the options side by side. Absolutely nothing worked, the home page, named 'home' and the 'cms' was properly set, mod_rewrite working, htaccess file just peachy...but domain.com/ wouldn't work. after a few hours I saw that domain.com/home/ did, though I swear it hadn't been.
Finally I wiped the blood off the keyboard where I'd been smashing my head against it and went into url rewrite management and set id path to '/', request path to '/' and target path to '/home/' and it works like it should have all along. Hope this helps someone else!
