#199089

Hi,

I have just viewed my site after the weekend to see the message String could not be parsed as XML.

If I manually type mydomain/blog I can access the blog and every other page, however my indes page doesn’t appear.

My menu is set to XLayout – Features Intro, I have also changed this and It makes no difference, however if I change the template (to prostar) it works. Why? I haven’t made any template changes recently, nor any other core changes. No additional plugins or modules have been installed – seems to just have randomly broken.

I am still able to access the admin are, where I was able to change the templates. I was able to update the T3 plugin as well, according to my install I am using T3 version is 2.3.0 and Purity version 1.0.0 Developer preview.

Can anybody shed some light on this issue?! I could probably re-install the template but I want to know what’s going on if possible, bug?

Joomla 3.2.3

The only edit I did make was to the htaccess file – I added this code, however it worked fine all day after I made the change;

# Redirect non-www urls to www
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.mydomain.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.mydomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Thanks

J

I could not get your point here. Please update url of page where problem can be seen here and describe in details of how it should be. I will give you suggestion then.

Hi – apologies that should have read ‘index’ page not indes.

Anyway I managed to get it working again. It was due to my .htaccess file, I had added the following code to the bottom of the file to redirect all non-www urls to www.


# Redirect non-www urls to www
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.mydomain.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.mydomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Is there something wrong with the syntax above, or is there any reason why it won’t work? I realise this isn’t a Purity issue showever any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

J

@johnnys: Here is correct script:

Change:


# Redirect non-www urls to www
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.mydomain.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.mydomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]


To:


# Redirect non-www urls to www
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.mydomain.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mydomain.com/$1 [L,R=301]
