I am experiencing a issue with one of my website I designed.  One of the links are returning "File Not Found 404 error".  I have notice that the link is actuallly missing a letter, in the spelling.  How do I fix this problem?

 

Regards,

Morris Davis

I'm not sure how this is DW related, but just fix the link in your code. Should be a href="...". Update the spelling and your link should be fixed.

1. Open the Template.dwt file from your local site's TEMPLATES folder.

2. Correct the navigation link in Code View so that it jives with the actual filename. 

3. Save Template changes. 

4. Populate Template changes to all Child Pages.

5. Republish entire site to server.

 

Hope that helps.  Post back if you have more questions.

As @Ben M  suggests, this may be a correction to your code, in which case you could provide us with the code you use to create your link. For this it's also interesting to check :

  • Does your file path corresponds to the link ?
  • Does the tree structure used require, or not, the inclusion of a folder name ?
  • Whether your linked file has been correctly uploaded to the server ?
  • Have you created a DW site, otherwise your link will point to file:// which won't work at all once it's online?
