Custom Redirects Not Working was created by chesfam
Hi - Just installed and I am trying to create custom shortened redirects, like

www.chesapeakefamily.com/FavoriteDocs

to go to here

www.chesapeakefamily.com/index.php/health/maryland-favorite-docs

Can you look at my setup and see what I am doing wrong? Thanks!

P.s. The built in Redirect in Joomla was not working either

Hi,
it seems you need to add this at the end of .htaccess file:
ErrorDocument 404 /

Do you know why I would be getting this error message when going to the redirect component:


Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 136 bytes) in /home/chesapea/public_html/libraries/joomla/database/database/mysqli.php on line 498

This message means your PHP thread has consumed all memory available as configured in your PHP. You could increase this value in php.ini, but usually 256 Mb of memory (as in your case) should be enough. I suggest you to check if there's something strange. Consider that ReDJ itself just execute a single query, so it cannot be this the reason for the memory issue.

I'm assuming your web server is Apache. In this case you should have a .htaccess file in the web root folder. Consider that the file is hidden (start with dot). If you doesn't have it, you could rename htaccess.txt into .htaccess, and add the line at the end.
