It seems like your TWiki has an configuration issue. It is hard to diagnose with just "page not found". Please read the SupportGuidelines and provide us with some more details.

To be honest, we have experienced this same problem but only with IE. Most of the time it is a machine that originally had the free version of FrontPage installed. When IE attempts to download it makes FrontPage requests that Apache cannot satisfy. The signs of such behavior can be found in the Apache logs that cover your Twiki instance -- you will see FrontPage requests.

But as Peter says, the absence of alot of information makes it tough to give you a hand.

the problem to be more clear is that i attach a particular file. that file resides in /home/httpd/twiki/pub/Main/foldername/file name. when i try to find if sucha file has been uploaded to this location, it is there.Only when i try to download it from this location i find the following error message:"the requested URL was not found on this server". does ATTACHURL twikivariable get initialized somewhere.Does it need any modification to Perl script on Attach. Clarify if possible.

%ATTACHURL% is the same as %PUBURL%/%WEB%/%TOPIC%. Run testenv to see if the PUBURL is correctly set. Fix $pubUrlPath in lib/TWiki.cfg if needed.
