Drupal 4.7.4
'me' alias - latest as of 11/22/06

I installed the module and gave it an alias of 'me' instead of the default 'user/me' (obviously I am not using the ' ' ) . If I go www.site.com/me I get an access denied. I can still go to the user page however. I also created users after installing the module just to see if maybe that was the problem, but it didn't seem to matter.

I didn't see any access controls, so I really don't know where else the problem could be. any assistance would be apreciated.

That's not how this module is supposed to work. All the module does is replace the 'me' part of an url with the current user's uid.

In your case, if you were logged in as the first user on the site, going to yoursite.com/me would forward you to yoursite.com/1. The module will not redirect you to from yoursite.com/1 to yoursite.com/user/1. You couldtry using path_auto for that.

I've installed 'me' alias. I've not changed any of the configuration. i.e., user/me is the text in the 'me' alias configuration page. But still, I'm getting access denied page when i point my browser to mysite/user/me.

How can this issue can be resolved?

Thanks in advance.
