[support] URL path settings

[Adam Tong]

Hi,

I'm new to drupal (i'm using drupal 7 by the way). The only modules that I 
installed until now are the internationalisation module and the variable module 
because it is necessary to run the internationalization module. I don't want to 
install more modules at this moment, because I'm just learning, and it is less 
confusing. But if you tell me i have to install that to have aliases work i'll 
do it once i'll need it in a production site.
the name of my alias is "article-downtown" i used other names not having even 
the hyphen but did not work.
I'm sure i did somewhere wrong somewhere but have no idea where. At the 
beginning i played a lot with the settings...

Thank you

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.
