Trouble with clean url

I am confused. Are you using "node/x" or aliases of nodes that currently exist?

I don't know whether my problem is the same problem with netlord, but after upgrading to beta-3, my 301 redirection isnt working. My sample redirect is:

old url = http://www.nontonbioskop.com/index.php/news/1997
new url = http://www.nontonbioskop.com/news/statham-siap-main-dalam-transporter-3

url alias = "news/statham-siap-main-dalam-transporter-3" ---> node/1997
path-redirect = "index.php/news/1997" ---> node/1997 --- type: 301

so, going to http://www.nontonbioskop.com/index.php/news/1997 will go straight to my frontpage.

@netlord: what line did you put that fix (it's a fix, right?)? I tried putting it after line 120, but still no change..

Note: I'm reverting back to using .htaccess redirect for now, so if you try the old url above it will work :)

@natrio: In this case, enter the "from" url as "news/1997" and not "index.php/news/1997" and it should work just fine. Do you mind actually attaching a screenshot of your admin/build/path-redirect/add page as well for me?

Sorry...I havent' been able to reply till now,

@Dave Reid: I tried that, but it is giving me 404 error.

Hello,

I have the same issue it is the same with the dev version. redirect doesn't work :-(

Edit: when I create a new alias then it works perfectly, only the old exists aliases doesn't work.

kind regards

Yes, I can also confirm that creating a new alias (based on my sample url above) using: http://www.nontonbioskop.com/berita/1997 is working perfectly.

But, when I tried another alias using "'/index.php/" in the url, it failed to redirect:
http://www.nontonbioskop.com/index.php/berita/1997

@drew29: did you also using "index.php" in the url?

Old redirects that include 'index.php' in them that you may have added before I started improving the path matching code will probably not work. You will need to delete and re-add them. Or you could probably run a SQL command like "UPDATE {path_redirect} SET path = REPLACE(path, 'index.php/', '')"

Well, I was moving my old site on another cms which has 'index.php' on every content to drupal so I had to redirect them to the new preferred aliases (drupal way..hehe). Fortunately I can still use a some redirect rules in .htaccess to redirect them and google already picked up most of my new aliases, so it's all good.
Thanks alot for the help guys!

Hello,

I may be having the same issue with the latest beta and dev version.

When I create a first alias it works fine, like
mysite.com/node/1 to mysite.com/dogs

but if I create a new alias like
mysite.com/dogs to mysite.com/new-dogs

The old alias does not redirect to the new one even though the redirect exists in the redirect table, meaning
mysite.com/dogs points to node/1
and node/1 points to new-dogs

Hope this is clear :)

UPDATE: Downgrading to path_redirect 6.x-1.0-beta1 fixed this issue :) Not too elegant I know, but will try to look for the cause

+1 for this problem with 1.0-beta3.

Redirect from /mypath/page fails. The page simply displays.

Redirect from /node/12 works.

Fixed with latest code.

@giorgio79: Not sure exactly what you're doing, but if you're just creating aliases, that does not create redirects. File a new issue if you're still having a problem.
