Mandatory information about my setup:

Have I read the related troubleshooter articles above before posting (which pages?)? No
Have I searched the tickets before posting? yes
Have I read the documentation before posting (which pages?)? yes, but don't understand
Joomla! version: 2.5.7
PHP version: 5.2 i think
MySQL version: (unknown)
Host: (optional, but it helps us help you)
Admin Tools version: 2.3.2

Description of my issue:
I created a new web-page. Some ads on the web are running and pointing to an non existing URL (of old page) - www.mydomain.com/en/for-business/

This content is now available at: www.mydomain.com/en/team-building/business-and-companies

I've read the documentation on this website about URL redirections and also set the redirection, but when I enter in my browser www.mydomain.com/en/for-business/ the deafult 404 error of joomla is displayed.

The redirection is published.
THe "system - admin tools" plugin is enabled.


Thank you

My guess is that you mixed up the configuration of the redirection. You have to enter this:

Existing URL: en/team-building/business-and-companies
New URL: en/for-business

OK.

it works now... maybe the error was because I've put a / on the begining of the URL.

Thank you

Yep. The slash at the beginning certainly causes a problem.
