I copied the HEAD version that appears on the download page as of today (November 25, 2006) into a drupal 5beta1 instantiation. This test site is upgraded from my site running on 4.7.4. That site has search404 installed correctly and I wanted to get it installed on 5beta1 and see if it would work.

Here's what I saw, and did.

First, "Search 404" doesn't appear in the admin panels. It doesn't appear in the access control. It did not appear in the module listing until I added the following file named search404.info:

name = Search 404
description = Search 404
dependencies = search
package = "Search"

Second, If I go to the URL admin/settings/search404 it doesn't bring up the search404 admin page.

Third, the module works. If I request some j/random/URL it does properly do the search and bring me to an appropriate page.

I can confirm that search404 works on Drupal 5 but there isn't any setting pages.
Are there any chances to see it ported to Drupal 5?

Hi, I'm the new maintainer of s404. I intent to merge it with customerror, but it took longer than expected. Perhaps should I just release a quick port to 5.x for the people who needs it.

Hi forngren,
I agree: it's better to release a quick port to drupal 5 and then merge it with custom error ;)

Anyway, thank you for your work

Added a 5.x-dev branch. First attempt to port, probably not stable.

Found some issues, will roll new update. It will take some time for the packaging scripts to get it though.

Alkcxy, you seems to be using search404 on your site, is it stable? Can I add a stable branch?

Ok, I installed the latest version of search404. The settings page doesn't function properly yet. There is a blank page with only the title (obviously "Search 404 settings")

You tried S404 stable? It works for me atleast

Ok, I disabled the module and removed the directory. Then I re-uploaded and re-enabled it. Now it's ok! ;)

Thank you!
