XF 2.1 Archive in 2.x?

[rickhz]

Google picked up an error https://www.explorerforum.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-236619.html

Is the archive part of 2.x? I did a search in the Admin Control Panel and found no reference to it.

Does the archive folder exist on your server?

The error I get for that link (Firefox) is

The page isn’t redirecting properly

and the endpoint URL is https://www.explorerforum.com/forums/archive/index.php/install/install/install/install/install/install/install/install/install/install/install/install/install/install/install/install/install/install/install/install/index.php

Yes the folder is there. The only file in it is index.php

I don't believe that is a standard part of a Xenforo installation.

More to the point, check your htaccess file for a redirect - it looks like you're trying to redirect archive to something else but the redirect is faulty.

Ok thanks.

I suppose the archive folder is left over from XF 1.x? Should I just delete the folder?

XF has never had an archive directory.

It's either from previous software, an add-on, or something you created yourself.

If it's not being used by other software, it can be deleted.
