[support] url alias not working?

[will hall]

hi, thanks for the replies.

the categories module is generating a vocabulary titled 'section'

so /section/radio lists all the nodes tagged with that taxonomy term.

however /section just returns the header and footer, no blocks, and the 
number '2'

this is very strange bc /section/radio or /section/blog return those 
taxonomy item tagged nodes no problem. but when i put the url alias in 
for /radio to return /section/radio, it doesn't work.

this is important bc we switched to drupal recently and there are a lot 
of links out there to /radio

thanks for help
