Hi,
I have installed the forward module on my site a few weeks ago and it seems that most of the time whenever a user tries to click on e-mail this page he gets a page not found error

Can you check please

Works on all of mine, so I'm obviously going to need a lot more info from you. Can you try forwarding on to my email address? webolutionary@webolutionary.com

Even I dont have any more information besides the fact that I got emailpage not found errors on my admin page. but strangely the forward link seems to work for me and a test user that i have created for my site. I dont know if this is relevant information but I have just updated my feedback and the pathauto modules yesterday.

Do you still want me to try and forward you a test page

Hi Seanr ,
I tried to forward you an e-mail page yesterday . When I clcik on the email this page link it opened fine but when i clicked on the submit button to forward the e-mail on the first attempt, I just got a blank page and later. On the second attempt though it did forward the page, i dont know if you have recieved it as yet or not.

In the admin page I found the following error log - I dont know how useful this is going to be

Type page not found

Never got the email. Mind trying again?

Hi Seanr,
Just sent the e-mail at webolutionary@webolutionary.com
Please confirm if you recieved the e-mail.
Also is it supposed to say in the admin logs page if a page has been forwarded?

Received it and the links worked just fine. Unfortunately, without further information and being unable to reproduce it in any way, I'm afraid there's nothing I can do right now. Try to find out what email client the recipient was using, it might have something to do with that. Otherwise, I'm completely at a loss.

The article you forwarded was quite interesting, BTW.

Seanr,
I will try and find some more information and if I face this issue again, will let you know.

I hope interesting means in a good way for the article.

Thanks for all your help

Yes of course - I almost never mean it any other way. :-)

Setting the issue to active as some of my users have reported the problem again of getting errors on clicking e-mail this page and sometimes not recieving forwarded pages
I will try and get some more iformation for you.

Find out from as many of them as possible what email clients they're using and ask them to forward the forward messages to me.

Actually scratch that last request. Can you do me a favor and go to modules/forward and report the versions and dates listed at the top of the forward.module and forward.theme files? Just copy the whole string. Also, did you previously have the emailpage module installed and if so, when was it removed? Is it possible the users in question are clicking on links in old emails?

As a temporary measure, go ahead and download the latest 4.7 version directly from CVS. I've added code which will make it backward compatible with the emailpage module and eliminate your 404s at least until we figure out where on earth the bad links are coming from?

Here are your requested details

/* $Id: forward.module,v 1.11.2.21 2006/07/25 15:55:41 seanr Exp $ */
// $Id: forward.theme,v 1.2.2.6 2006/07/04 20:21:21 seanr Exp $

I did have the emailpage module installed previously and removed it sometime in early august
The users are trying to forward pages using the email this page link on the nodes so I dont think they are using the old links.

Should I use the updated module that you have posted under Drupal 4.7 or should I use the link that you gave in the previous post?

4.7 version is no longer being maintained except for critical bugs and security issues. If you're encountering this in 5.x or 6.x, please reopen and let me know.
