1 Mark, I think we talked about this before, but just to make certain...

You have to turn on category archiving before you can do anything with them. The fact you're getting a 'not found' error makes me suspect categories haven't been enabled.

Go to your MT admin page, and click on the Weblog Config button in the links down the left side of the page.

Next page, click on the Archiving link at the top of the page. NOT the link in the list below General Setting, the one along the top of the window (2nd line) that comes after Core Setup and Preferences.

On the resulting page, under the column that says Archive Type, look at the bottom entry. It will say Category with a checkbox beside it. I'm betting there's no check in the box. If not, put a check in there, then click Save. Once the page has saved, you will need to (re)build your category archives in order to actually create the files on the server.

To do that, just click the Rebuild Site button on the sidebar, then when the little window pops up, click the dropdown arrow and tell it to Rebuild Category Archives Only. Then click the Rebuild button.

This will create the files on the sever so there's something there when you link to your categories from your index page.

Let me know how it goes (or that the category archiving had already been turned on).

2 Thanks for the help, but category archiving was already turned on.

3 Have you also done a rebuild of the category archives? That's the part that actually creates the files on the server.

4 Yes, I did a rebuild of the category archives.

I still get:

"Not Found
