404 homepage, rest of site works

Post by DirkQ » Wed Dec 19, 2018 1:20 pm

Dear all,

My question concerns our website www.wahlbach.com. Since I've installed SSL the homepage doesn't work anymore, it shows the Joomla 404 error. Both http:// and https://.

However www.wahlbach.com/de/ does work. And even more, once you have visited this page, www.wahlbach.com works as well!

SSL is forced by both Joomla and server side. It concerns a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate. This seems to be installed as should and working fine:
https://www.sslshopper.com/ssl-checker. ... hlbach.com

Joomla version: 3.9.1

If more information is needed please let me know. I hope someone can help me out here.

Homepage access level and/or language setting ?

Thank you sir! (for pointing me in the right direction)

It was the language setting, NL was default, but we only have content for DE and EN. So disabled the NL language and problem solved.
