Hello,

I have upgraded a site for client. It is upgraded from Joomla 2.5 to 3.x latest. And all the k2 attachment sef links were working fine on development server. When we moved the site to live server the k2 download ids seems to have changed..

e.g. On dev site the url is
devpdomain.com/publications/item/download/274_c4317552f4077e107d419f7f92e27c58.html

The same file has different url on the live server
livedomain.com/publications/item/download/274_abf33fc148447d81111722c77b8311d9.html

I have to have the development site urls as those are the once crawled by search engines, for years.. And due to this I have got a huge list of 404 errors on live site.. I dont understand why the urls are changed in the first place.

Please suggest what can be done to get the old urls back.

Thanks!

Hi,

Can you compare the $secret variable in your configuration files? The hash is generated based on that variable. It should remain the same after the update.
