Upgrade 1.7 to 1.8 Error 404 /activity... index.php forward command

Reported by: stevet123 Owned by:

Component: Core Version: 1.7
Severity: major Keywords: upgrade 1.8 index.php activity

Description

I'm upgrading to 1.8 from 1.7
I enter the url .../upgrade.php & all works
HOWEVER, index.php is called... in this code forward('activity') is called
I get a 404 error because 'activity' does not exist.
There's no directory/subdirectory for 'activity'.
If I remark out the forward('activity') command my site comes up (but not in a clean manner).

What am I doing wrong... how can I get past or correct?
Thanks!

Steve

The upgrade instructions say to update your .htaccess file with the new rewrite rules. If you never changed your .htaccess, you can just copy htaccess_dist over it.

I have copied over htaccess_dist over to .htaccess & made rewrite rule updates according to my configuration. It appears I'm having an issue with /pg/... where is this set?

I can enter url with wwwroot/FA/pg/activity and will get a reply (non-formatted, but works)... system is trying wwwroot/FA/activity and THIS DOES NOT work

This is not a bug with Elgg as far as I can tell, but a problem with your install. As this is a bug tracker, this is not the correct place to get help with this. Please seek assistance at the Elgg community site at http://community.elgg.org/. If it is later determined to be a bug, come back and reopen. Thanks.
