Body: <p>I have an issue creating a new locale, I already have two set up 'en_gb' and 'en_au' and have added a third 'fr'. </p>
  
  <p>I have added the new locale to general.php:</p>

          'en_au' =&gt; 'https://xxx.com/au/',
          'fr' =&gt; 'https://xxx.com/fr/'
      ),
    'devMode' =&gt; false
  ),
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And have enabled that locale on the section with exactly the same settings as the others:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.sstatic.net/K7d0i.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/K7d0i.png" alt=""></a></p>

Title: Creating a new locale on craft 2, entries won't load
ThreadText: # Creating a new locale on craft 2, entries won't load
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2018-05-02)
  
  I have an issue creating a new locale, I already have two set up 'en\_gb' and 'en\_au' and have added a third 'fr'.
  
  I have added the new locale to general.php:
  
  ```
  '.com' => array(
    'siteUrl' => array(
          'en_gb' => 'https://xxx.com/',
          'en_au' => 'https://xxx.com/au/',
          'fr' => 'https://xxx.com/fr/'
      ),
    'devMode' => false
  ),
  
  ```
  
  And have enabled that locale on the section with exactly the same settings as the others:

  When I switch to the French locale on an entry I can live preview without a problem, but when I actually publish the page and visit it the entry cannot be found.
  
  I'm well and truly stumped on why I can't access the published page.
  
  When creating the locale I did have issues with failed tasks re-saving entries which I spent a lot of time trying to debug with [this guide](https://craftcms.com/support/stuck-tasks) without luck and with less hair. Would this be a cause considering the locale shows on an entry and the live preview works?
