Just installed BuddyPress 1.2.4.1 on a site using a custom theme.

Anyone have any ideas why BuddyPress pages would display as expected but all return a 404 header HTTP status?

Is there any special rules I need to add to my .htaccess for BuddyPress pages to not return a 404 header status?

I just noticed if I create a page called forums in wp-admin, the forums directory still shows but a HTTP/1.1 200 OK is then returned.

[rich! @ etiviti]

part of bp_core_do_catch_uri() when a template is not located then:

if ( $located_template = locate_template( array( ‘404.php’ ) ) ) {
status_header( 404 );
load_template( $located_template );

thanks @nuprn1, I switched back to the dafault BuddyPress template & the same happens.
any other ideas?

I am experiencing the same problem on a
WPMU new install
WP 3.0 RC3
1.2.4.1
Are others experiencing this issue?

I am seeing at least a few others who are having similar issues.

@thekmen – This could be fixed in BP 1.3-bleeding version, but for the 1.2 branch, please report it as a bug.

[thekmen]

@r-a-y I have another WP3 RC 3 with BP 1.2.4.1 install on the same server & it doesn’t occur.
I want to do a fresh install with 2.9.2 and see if I can reproduce but not sure if there is much point as it looks like WP3 will be out today or tomorrow.

Surely this comes back to the fact that 1.2.4.1 is not really that stable paired with WP 3.0? I realise that it’s meant to run with WP 3.0 but there do appear to be issues, which would make me wary of running the combo on a production site.

[thekmen]

@hnla the issue is happening me on a 1.2.4.1 BP install with WP 2.9.2, my install with WP3 RC is fine

[thekmen]

did the WP admin update to WP3 & still have the same issue, need to sort this ASAP, any ideas?

[thekmen]

resolved, it is an issue with the nightly builds of bpAlbum +,

@nuprn1 @tober11 @r-a-y @hnla @thekmen

Just to confirm to the group that this problem *was* due to a defect in the BP Album+ *nightly build* code (not the release version).

Based on the excellent debugging info provided by @thekmen, we were able to quickly isolate and correct this problem. It has been fixed in all nightly builds from 0.1.9.2010-06-25 onwards.

Debugging a complex application like BP Album+ is a team effort. If you ever suspect a problem on your system is being caused by BP Album+, contact us right away. We will do our best to replicate the problem and give you an answer as quickly as possible.

Thanks!
