Help! Joomla redirect problem was created by Joe Keat
Hi There,
Sorry if this is more of a Joomla problem than anything.
I had installed Moodle and then about a week later installed Joomla.
Quite experienced with Joomla but not so much with moodle.
Wanted to link the two, so installed Joomdle and then found out that every time I tried to get back to my moodle site. My safari said there where too many redirects. I dont think its a Joomdle probelem but if anyone can help then i can start the Joomdle process.

Attached is what the message i get.


My joomla site is: www.budeslsc.co.uk/home
My Moodle site is: www.budeslsc.co.uk/training

Many Thanks,
Joe Keat

How do you try to "get back" to your moodle site? Is there a link somewhere? Do you have any redirects in place through Joomla or Moodle? What about through .httaccess?

To be honest, I put down my work on my Moodle site and then went on to install Joomla and then tried to get back to my moodle site and it kept on coming up with that error. I tried typing it directly into the address bar and also putting a link in my Joomla site, both same problem, same error. :( I know how to access my httaccess file but always been a bit unsure of what to change in it so never did.

Thanks for your reply,

Joe

Do you have an httaccess in the /training/ folder?

Also, somewhere you are defining /training/ differently than /anything/ which is defined to go to /home/.

I believe the problem is related to your redirects somewhere, perhaps another file in your /training/. The easiest way is to disable httaccess or rewrite temporarily to see what results you get. But clear browser cache between.

Hi Chris,

Sorry for the long time it look to reply.
Still having this probelm. Decided to uninstall moodle completely and re install it in hope that it would resolve the problem and also turned off Joomla 2.5 plugin for redirection but still no luck. I have written to my hosting company with the probelm and waiting to hear back. They are normally quite good at getting back to me so should have an answer soon.

Cheers,

Joe
