TYPO3 RealUrl switch to manual config produces error - php

Question

I'm doing the exact steps of the following answer:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/16731438
However, if I switch to Manual Configuration I got the following error, even if my realurl_conf.php is the exact same file as realurl_autoconf.php was before:
Page Not Found
Reason: Segment "fotografie" was not a keyword for a postVarSet as expected on page with id=0.
If I switch back to automatic config everything works as expected.
Any ideas on that?

Edit:
Maybe there is something wrong with the rootpageId:
If i edit the autoconf from rootpage id 1 to rootpage id 2 i get the following error:
Page Not Found
Reason: Segment "fotografie" was not a keyword for a postVarSet as expected on page with id=2.
=> I assume the part id=2 comes from my rootpageId. Going back to my original error, i assume there is somehow a rootpageId of 0 specified (even if set rootpage_id = '1'
I have the following site structure:
id=0
|id=1 (Home; Redirect to id=2; marked as rootpage)
-|id=2 (Startseite)
-|id=3 (Fotografie)
-|id=4 (Grafikdesign)
I know this is not ideal, but with autoconf this structure is working, so i assume there must be a way to get this working with manual conf, without changig the structure (because i don't think this would be trivial)

Answer 1

Try this very minimal config: The rootpage is defined also the domainname, this may work, but I always have trouble with realurl on diffeerent types of domain (local/sub/nregular) and caching of paths.
Paths cache can be flushed in the backend: Web > Speaking URL's > "select a page in tree" > Flush all Entries (harmful). Dont do this on an indexed site!
Hope this config works for you.
