If you get an "Invalid URL" when you try Yahoo email, does this help?

Hi Everyone,

A few of us have been having problems with an "Invalid URL" when we try to access our Yahoo email accounts.

In another thread that was deleted by the originator, I saw a suggestion to add "us." (without quotes) to the start of the URL.

***Credit the user "Erik" with this answer; unfortunately it was deleted along with that thread:***

If the invalid URL starts with

http://mg1.mail.yahoo.com/...

do this at the beginning

http://us.mg1.mail.yahoo.com/...

URL's containing mg2 instead of mg1 don't have the same problem, at least for me.

I've seen this happen with two different browsers: IE7 and Firefox. It happens when Yahoo redirects the URL

http://mail.yahoo.com/

To the wrong one, such as

http://mg1.mail.yahoo.com/

I doubt this is a browser problem.

Good luck and thanks again to "Erik" for this solution,

Big Al Mintaka

    Hi all,

    I have tried to use the new 5.0 beta version in my Mac OS X using java VM 7 or 8. After I load an RDF file and I start the reasoner, I receive an error of inconsistency ontology: IOException: invalid url.

    If I use the old version 4.3 using java 7 VM the reasoner works perfectly.

    I have the same problem in windows 8 as well.

    Below I added the reasoner exception:

    IOException: invalid url

    I would like to understand why this is appending.

    Thank you.
