Links to extensions

Post by utphotoman » Wed May 02, 2007 11:09 pm

I'm starting a new site with Joomla and have been checking out the extensions.  While I have been able to download several of them, I am still not able to access several others.  One example is the Gallery2 Bridge extension.  When I attempt to download the file, I get the following error message:

Not Found
The requested URL /forgeoffline.html/sf/frs/do/viewSummary/projects.gallery2_bridge/frs was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache/1.3.37 Server at http://www.joomla.org Port 80


A similar thing happens for several other extensions I'd like to use.  Any suggestions?

This is because the "old" forge is offline. Try http://joomlacode.org.

See this message.

I tried there as well and the links there are dead too.  The "Extensions" menu tab just kicks you back to the old site: http://extensions.joomla.org/

Try this. The menu you used is like the main menu on this site. This link is on the menu below the header.

Sorry about all of this . . .

now it's giving me a "permission denied" message when I try to access the project.  I have registered, activated the account and logged in.

Right now, it's mostly the Gallery 2 Bridge that I need.

I think this is a matter that has to be addressed to the component author.  They are able to set permissions to their project and may have made it private.

It also may be a project that was recently migrated and hasn't yet been claimed by the author.
