HI Luigi,
Hope you are well?
I have now upgraded my Joomla from 1.5 to 1.7 and just reinstalled the new version of your excellent component. I have just two questions:
1) Is the functionality that we discussed previously for "only redirect on error" for matched URL as opposed to EVERYTHING included in this latest version?
2) The com installed successfully, but when I try and go into the component itself (and of the menu options) I get:
500 - An error has occurred.
JHtmlBehavior: :multiselect not supported.
Thanks and regards,
Alex

Hi Alex,
about the first question, I just don't remember the topic. So could you be more detailed?

About the second question,
I've developed ReDJ 1.6.0 under Joomla 1.7 and finally tested under Joomla 1.6. With a "clear" Joomla installation I can't get the error. Could you, please, tell me which Joomla version are you using? Also, how can I reproduce the issue? Where I have to click?

Thanks,
Luigi

Hi Luigi,
Yes if you remember I asked about the redj.php redirecting every matching URL rule but I wanted the redirect to happen ONLY if there was an error (i.e. an article didnt exist in a category) and you made a change to the redj.php file for me.
On the issue of the error, I used a migration tool to move my J1.5 data across to J1.6 as it wouldnt work in J1.7. The component installed without error but when I click on ANY of the REDJ menu items in the component menu I get the error I sent last time.
Hope this helps,
Alex

did you get my reply it didnt show?
you added functionality to redirect on ERROR ONLY always when it reaches a match so I could catch expired articles and redirect.
i installed the com under J1.6 as I had to use this to get a migration tool working but will soon upgrade to J1.7

Hi Alex,
the new ReDJ version doesn't include this "ERROR ONLY" feature yet. It's a porting from J15 to J16/17 were only two (important) features were added:

• The redirection rules can work on the entire URL, including protocol and domain;
• It can be specified for each redirect rule whether or not to first decode the URL.

About the upgrade, I don't know how the upgrade process works, but probably doesn't support ReDJ. Also, consider that this release in not compatible with the old one (even the tables structure was changed). What I could suggest is to uninstall ReDJ (component and plugin) from the backend, than you MUST ALSO manually delete all the ReDJ tables from the database. After this, you can install the new version.

I know that all previous configured items will be loosed. I'm planning to add an import/export feature to ReDJ (both for J15 and J16/17). But at the moment I have to finish Tag Meta migration first.

See you soon,
Luigi

No problem, I can add the error only stuff by hand as it was fairly easy changes.

I did not upgrade the Joomla, I installed a fresh copy of J1.6 (new and empty database) and then used SPUpgrade to migrate over the menues/articles/categories etc etc to the new Joomla 1.6 version from 1.5. The modules / components etc WERE NOT upgraded and I downloaded and installed the NEW REDJ version 2.0 for the new Joomla that is on Joomla.org extensions and your site. It is THIS that does not work giving the error stated.

There were NOT redj tables in the database before the import so you dont need to worry about corruption, it just doesnt work for me right now. I have looked at the table structure and I can see it would be easy to export the mySQL table for the redirect and import into the NEW version.

Ok,
I will follow your steps (install, migrate, ecc.) and let you know.

Luigi

Thanks Luigi, all the migration does is move the data over, the images and the template stated nothing else I believe.

I was able to replicate the error with Joomla! 1.6.3 as you can see from the attached screenshot.



This error doesn't exists in the last 1.6.6 release so I won't try to fix it. Just upgrading Joomla! to the last 1.6.6 should solve the issue. And this is the best solution considering the "limited life" for J16...

Best regards,
Luigi

yes that is exactly the error, thanks Luigi I will follow your advice. good job ... kind regards
