Open website in Joomla article

[bollenboer]

Hello forum,
Using Joomla 3.4.3 and xampp 5.6.8

Making an article on my pc I try to open the frontend of the website to see the result.
But that is not possible: the message Page can not be found is coming up.
When saving and closing the article the website is visible.

I did the same on my laptop and got the same result.
This does not work very pleasant of course.

What is going wrong ?

Probably a Joomla issue.

Hello Nobbis,
I made the same site on a subdomain of my host. No problem at all.
So I don't think it is caused bij Joomla.
It must have something to do with Xampp. Apache configuration may be ?

The problem may also be caused by different Operating Systems, most hosts are based on Linux Systems, whereas your Xampp is running under Windows.

The main problem is, that nobody here can help you about that, because we would have to install Joomla (which i even dont know) and to debug it, what is going wrong.

Did you look into the access log and into the error log? This will probably give you quite more informations about what is going wrong.

Hello Nobbie,
I cannot find the solution. Joomla writes problem is Xampp. Xampp writes problem is Joomla.

It is 99,9% a Joomla problem.

How do you install Joomla?
Is this a fresh installation or a migration of a live server Joomla installation?
Which URL does your Browser show for a working Joomla request?
Which URL does your browser show at the time you get the 404 not found error?
What does your Apache access.log show?

1 Url fort he whole content:

2 Url for a new article
http://localhost/keukenprins/administrator/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&layout=edit
3 Url after saving article
http://localhost/keukenprins/administrator/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&layout=edit&id=17
4 Url for looking at the frontend :
http://localhost/keukenprins/
Result:

No 404 error ! just this message
