Title: Help link broken
Post by: 1Cane on September 14, 2013, 12:46:34 PM
 On the clipboard when I click on web page I get error message 404. I can bring up web page by clicking on home page.  What is the fix for this? :joystick: I have made no recent changes on my computer.

404 means that the page you requested does not reside on the server.

I think HTC should have a 404 message like this one

If you click on the Home button of this forum from the navigation bar above it also links to a bad address. I think some of the sites have moved and the addresses have not been rectified quite yet.

I just tested it and the "Home" button does work on the forums.  The game link does appear to be broken.  I'll look into it tomorrow.  Not sure why it is broken, although it probably happened after the restoration of the site after the hard drive was replaced in the server.

It is not fixed yet.  The help pages are available via the WEB site.  The link in the game is the only issue, at the moment.

From the main game menu, the "web page help" leads to a dead link http://www.hitechcreations.com/Help-Section/Getting-Started/Aces-High-Help-Start.html (http://www.hitechcreations.com/Help-Section/Getting-Started/Aces-High-Help-Start.html)

Works for me, are you using an old saved link? If not, right click the link you are using and click "copy link location" and paste it here. Maybe your talking about a different link.

Specifically, what link is causing the "404" error?

Check caps. It's the lower case at the end of the link causing the error.

The error code is no help.  I need to know exactly where you are finding that link.

Bookmark the site on your browser.

I have clicked and clicked and clicked on the "WEB Page Help" option in the clipboard in every part of the game and cannot duplicate this problem.  Will someone click on it, then copy the URL from the browser and post it here for me to look at?

When you start the game, and the first clipboard comes up you click on "Web Page Help"

 
This is the link it goes to

http://www.hitechcreations.com/Help-Section/Getting-Started/aces-high-help-start.html

it even opens Internet Explorer even though I have BlueMoon as my browser.

As Fugitive said. You start Aces High, you get a clipboard that lets you choose online, offline, choose terrain, etc and web page help. Select web page help and you get this address and the error message. http://www.hitechcreations.com/Help-Section/Getting-Started/aces-high-help-start.html

If you change the address to  http://www.hitechcreations.com/Help-Section/Getting-Started/Aces-High-Help-Start.html then the link works. The difference being the capitol letters on Aces-High-Help-Start.
