good evening
I have just installed version 3.0.3.9 for a project I'm starting, I keep getting a 404 error when I click on the category, literally pulling my hair out looking for answers, but none of the listed subjects seem to give me an answer, it seems that this version has changed as I didn't get any issues with 3.0.3.8.

What is the exact URL of the page that the category link is taking you to?

this is the url that the link is supposed to go to which gets the 404 message, i was running 3.0.3.8 previously and never had any problems with this issue, somebody said that they changed some permissions in 3.0.3.9 which i cant seem to find.
Thanks again for any help you can provide.

Turn off SEO, rename the htaccess file and see if the category appears.

Check you have a .htaccess file and the rewrite rules in it are correct.

Thank you for that, this is what i have in the ht.access file, can you see what the issue might be, i have no clue
RewriteEngine On
# If your opencart installation does not run on the main web folder make sure you folder it does run in ie. / becomes /shop/

RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^sitemap.xml$ index.php?route=extension/feed/google_sitemap [L]
RewriteRule ^googlebase.xml$ index.php?route=extension/feed/google_base [L]
RewriteRule ^system/storage/(.*) index.php?route=error/not_found [L]

That looks correct to me.

If you haven't put too much time in to the site try starting again with a clean copy of 3.0.4.0.
