What exactly did you enter into the url-alias field when editing the page? Do you have a leading slash? If yes, remove it.
Also: Are you using Global Redirect to make sure your alias is always used (doesn't matter now since the alias doesn't work, but will be handy once it works). I always use the pathauto and global redirect modules, and change aliases only if I have a specific reason.

Subject: Re: [support] URL path settings

Does it look OK otherwise?  If you edit the content does it show the expected alias as the path?

Hi,

I added an alias for an article that displayed no error message when saved. The
problem is that the url was not modified. Even when i try to access it directly
by typing : http://127.0.0.1:8888/drup7/article-downtown instead of
http://127.0.0.1:8888/drup7/article-downtown instead of
http://127.0.0.1:8888/drup7/node/9 it does not work.

I'm using drupal 7 locally with easyphp.
Are there any other settings options that I have to check?

Thank you
