I installed the 6.x-1.x-dev version, which might have stopped URL Alias from working. The nodes were getting paths like /node/7645, in stead of /articles/how-drupal-works.

I am not sure Administration Language caused it, but I have now uninstalled the module and will keep an eye on the the paths in the future and tell you if it did.

Same problem here, with 6-1.4
not only, but causes admin to get pages not found.

The problem went away after I removed the module -- perfect paths! -- but I can't say if the module caused it.

I think it might be related to Language negotiation, and also to the default language before installing a new one - I built a site in english and then added french, when I added the second language (french), all the posts created before that stage got the language english instead of neutral.
anyway I guess this only effect old nodes, new posts get the autopath aliases.

I'll try and test this locally.

This is probably caused by the fact that the module modifies the global $language variable. I'll see if it's possible to modify $node->language to work aound this problem.

I just found this thread after a looong search (since there are so many possible modules involved in it).

It seems that specifying to only use admin language on:

admin
admin/*

Works. The URL aliases work again.

The strange thing is that this only affected two nodes. If I changed to language neutral instead of Swedish, the URL alias worked agian. Switching back to Swedish and saving the node again stopped the URL alias from working again.

How did I figure out where to start looking? Well, the aliases worked properly for anonymous users (who don't have permission to use the admin language module).

Hi all,
we have the same problem as shown.
We figured out that the problem occurs in the languages German, Spanish, Italian and Franch.
Could it be related to the special characters like ä(ae) and apostrophes?

We use also the pathauto module.

I can also confirm that Admin Language stop URL-alias from being shown. If I disable the module URL aliases are shown as supposed.

URL Aliases stopped AND menus hidden in primary links. :-(((((

Same problem with my site.
When I switch Administration menu on, the pathauto stops working and when I switch it off everything is OK.
When do you think will this issue be solved?

I noticed that the url aliasing just breaks for the admin. It does not for unregistered users.

I have committed a fix which makes it possible for the admin to create language neutral URL aliases. The fix adds a new setting on the administration language settings form, "Force language neutral aliases".

If this fix doesn't help with the specific problem you're experiencing, please create an issue with a detailed description of how your site is configured.
