Babel and 503 error

I'm struggling to get the Babel addon to work. Everything was working fine before installing Babel.

I've succesfully set Contexts and installed Babel with the help of these 2 tutorials:
- http://www.multilingual-modx.com/blog/2011/multilingual-websites-with-modx-and-babel.html
- http://www.butter.com.hk/blog/posts/2010/08/internationalization-in-modx-revolution.html (without the Lexicons part)
I'm trying to test a configuration where different language versions are in the URL in a format like www.domain.com/LANGUAGE

I'm receiving either 503 error on the root URL or 404 error in the language specific URLs ( ..../fi).

Any pointers?
What is getOption('http_host') actually returning? I coudn't find that from the Revo documentation.

I'm new with Revo and Babel. Most likely I'm missing something on the server side.

Example of my cultureKey and site_url settings (Finnish site):

This is the gateway code I've been using, found from the tutorials:
```
//make sure our plugin does not run on the mgr context (the manager)
    if($modx->context->get('key') != "mgr"){
        //grab the current domain from the http_host option
        switch ($modx->getOption('http_host')) {
                
                case 'http://domain.com/~folder/modx_installation/fi':
                //switch the context
                $modx->switchContext('fi');
                //set the cultureKey
                $modx->setOption('cultureKey', 'fi');
                break;
            
            
            default:
                // Set the default language/context here
                $modx->switchContext('us');
                $modx->setOption('cultureKey', 'us');
                break;
        }
    }
```
