sh404 You must provide a URL for the redirection

Question:

I recently upgraded sh404 to version com_sh404SEF-15_1.0.11_Beta_build_147.joomla1.5.x. The "preserve" settings function worked nicely. However I had to test some things so went into the advanced mode of the configuration control panel. Whenever I try to save the changes, sh404 returns an error that reads "You must provide a URL for the redirection." Nothing I change or set will allow me to make changes. However, if I change back to the basic mode, everything works fine, but I don't have access to advance settings, which are what I need. I tried rolling back to com_sh404SEF-15_1.0.7_Beta_build_133.joomla1.5.x as I had skipped that update. Same problem. What to do?

Answer:

We have spent some time on this exact same issue. Unfortunately, there is no answer for this problem yet. We have contacted the developer by leaving a message in the forum, but no one has answered. Our solution, though not ideal, was to roll back to version: com_sh404SEF-15_1.0.5_Beta_build_128.joomla1.5.x. If and when the developer provides a solution, we will post it here.

Solution worked for me. Thanks mate.

It happened after upgrading from Joomla 1.5.7 to Joomla 1.5.9. Then I installed sh404SEF 1.0.16_Beta - build_222. The .htaccess was already renamed (from htaccess.txt to .htaccess) before installing sh404. What I did was to put it back to txt, purge urls in sh404 and then switch to extended view and activate SEF "with .htaccess". Then Save and then I renamed from .txt to .htaccess

I have the some trouble ("You must provide a URL for the redirection.") but only when administration is in the "extended display" switch. When its a "standard view", its possible to save with out troubles.
