There is a serious bag in 1.0.5. You can find more hire:

If you care just a bit about your SEO DON'T upgrade to 1.0.5 until this is solved.

I am unable to replicated your issue. I just installed fresh, turned on SEO, and browsed around, all fine.  Then i check the page status with your link provided below, and they come back 200.

Great Scott, an early Christmas present! This will be wonderful just in case any malicious person tries to exploit our installations during the holidays. Great work team and Merry Christmas too you too!

Is UTF-8 implemented in this version? I really need a stable UTF-8 version.

I want to set up a UTF-8 site, but now only Joomla V1.1-alpha is based on UTF-8.

Can I  realize UTF-8 on Joomla V1.05 stable in following way:

Replace charset=iso-8859-1 with charset=utf-8 in following two files:
english.php
english.xml

With this way, I can display non-english characters now, looks like the website works good in UTF-8 mode.

My question is:
Is this sufficiently to realize UTF-8? I guess not. So, what others I need to modify? The data in mysql are in UTF-8?

I really lack patience to wait Joomla V1.1-stable or belta, has to modify existing version to get UTF-8 work.

Thank you very very much for suggestions!

There must be something wrong.
Pages display OK as far as I can see.

BUT, trying to validate with W3C the return message is "I got the following unexpected response when trying to retrieve blah blah " and the URL to be checked + 404 not found.

Well, I do have 404 error pages installed but why can't W3C not validate?

I make a fresh 1.0.5 instalation on http://www.pcigre.com/test/

you can check http headers with some tool like this:

http://gsitecrawler.com/tools/Server-Status.aspx

And you'll se that headers are wrong! Please fix this as soon as posible until many people update.

I have no problems:  http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http% ... Fjoomla.dk and it is 1.0.5...

Great work!

Try to check  my 1.0.5 site at http://joomla.dk it´s ok!

[Fabster]

I have just upgraded from 1.0.4 to 1.0.5 and I was really hoping that all the "read more" links in my newsflash module would show up again. But nothing happened. Can anyone confirm that the "read more" is still not working for the newsflashes in 1.0.5? Is there a fix to this?

Cheers

Hi,

first, thanks for very first Christmas present! 

I think that 1.0.5 version was released just yesterday, but date on release article is faked to " Joomla! 1.0.5 Released - Monday, 21 November 2005". Why?

[romit]

I have found a small problem in the contents of the package

within the 1.0.5 package the install.png icon is a humongous 34KB in size  :o where the others are 2KB at most

and I also don't see the reason to include it in the upgrade package as the icons are the same.  ???

And thank you guys for the Christmas Present  :D

The news release was composed a few days earlier.

Site appears to work fine except I have the following issue that was not present in 1.0.4.

After installing 1.0.4 to 1.0.5 patch, I am unable to validate at http://www.w3c.org.  Get following message from W3C HTML Validator??


got the following unexpected response when trying to retrieve :

404

Edit:

Have this problem when using Joomla's SEO.  If I turn SEF off, W3C HTML validator does not get 404 Error.  Loads page and goes through validation, which fails of course due to the & in URLs.

[Tonie]

Replicated HarryB's problem with my own site.

[HarryB]

Also get these results from running my site through http://gsitecrawler.com/tools/Server-Status.aspx

Results of the GSiteCrawler Server-Test
Tested at 12/24/2005 12:54:12 PM / from 138.88.226.247:

URL=http://www.hrpr.com
Result code: 301 (MovedPermanently / Moved Permanently)
New location: http://www.hrpr.com/cms/index.php

URL=http://www.hrpr.com/cms/index.php
Result code: 404 (NotFound / Not Found)

The redirect is correct, but do not understand why site does display correctly but 404 error is generated???

Any ideas??


Edit:

Here are results with the Joomla SEO turned off...
