Glad to see that there is such an active discussion taking place on the Google Tap Add-on here at Nuke Cops... I've been pouring through the forums for some advice or tips that might help me to complete a working installation of the add-on and have yet to come up with any solution.
At the moment I'm salivating to get this thing working... lol... I was hoping that there might be someone here that could shed some light on this. It would be greatly appreciated.
Here's the current dilemna and site in question...
It's a hip hop web-site, however the content of the site is not at issue... lol
I downlaoded the latest distibution of the Google Tap... 10-03 I believe was the dist. not sure exactly, however, I unpacked and began working on the installation...
Of course, I'm not an expert, but a pretty good head on my shoulders having completed many new install / upgrade php-nuke add-ons in the past. I followed the directions pretty carefully...
Long story short, after having made all of the neccesary, line by line modifications in the various modules that were pointed to. Having made the appropriate changes to the includes/sessions.php file, the header.php file, the footer.php file and the like... After having verified that the server I'm propogated on does in fact have mod-rewrite enabled, I uploaded all of the various files back to the required locations, including the accompanied .htaccess file and proceed to check the site.
Here's what I got:
Module links seemed to remain in "modules.php?name=" format which brought me to the normal location of those areas... for instance, forums... brought me to the normal forums index page, which shows the various forum topics... as normally...
However, when mousing over the various forum topic links and seeing that the url did in fact change to the .html conversion, I was excited and happy to see that it worked, however, the link does nothing dut return a 404 page not found error message, as a matter of fact, every .html conversion link has the same return effect. All .html links are 404 page not found errors. ???
Q: Is there anything that I missed, is there a reason all of the .html links are returning 404 errors... any advice would be greatly appreciated?
Q: Has anyone here, experienced the same issue, as I'm assumming this may be a common configuration problem, that I might be referred to?
Q: Is it possible that there is a problem because my nuke site is actually in a subcategory folder of my site root folder?
(ie: httpdocs/www/community) where "www" is the root directory containing the site index.htm and "/community" is the folder containing the nuke site files.
Q: Should the .htaccess file be uploaded to "httpdocs/www"?
The .htaccess file must be in your Nuke root directory.
Use the Analyzer script in the front page to check whether you have mod_rewrite enabled on your server
By yeah, that is exactly where I have the .htaccess file uploaded. Same directory os the nuke header.php and footer.php... nuke root... It still seems to be a problem. Not sure where the problem is. As a matter of fact Last night I did a complete overright of all the php nuke files going back to a clean un modified version of nuke 7.0 due to the fact that I understand that there are quite a few GT'ed sites out there running 7.0... no success after the over write and a meticulous completion of the installation and upload of the Googlt Tap files. Still all urls that should be converted to the .html equivalent just when clicked, the page that is returned is error 404 page not found.
Does the fact that the url converts to .html mean the Mod_rewrite is working properly?
I also checked with the Google tap test.php to see if the mod_rewrite was installed and see that it is in fact running and installed.
Lastly, I decided to check with my Host company to see if they could see something that was the cause, stated that the Mod Rewrite module functions properly, except when there are directives in the .htacess that the server can not override.
Anyone know if there is some prohibitive code in the latest GT Distibution that I could remove from .htaccess to get it working?
Still no success... Desperate for help, I need this... please help. Anyone with advice please reply, with thoughts on what I might be abble to do to resolve this.
You can see that the urls are converted to .html however, returning error 404's. Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to shed on this issue.
Thanks a million

1) No, it means that the Nuke system itself is rewriting urls correctly. But without mod_rewrite, .htaccess will not be able to change them back to get the correct file.
2) I'm not sure what prohibited codes there would be.
Are you positive mod_rewrite is working on your server?
