URLs not followed too many redirects

Google is telling me that I have too many redirects. I have searched my entire site and there are no multiple 301 redirects. My sitemap includes target urls only. I grasping at straws. Could this be my problem?

We use the realurl module of TYPO3 to convert our static urls to dynamic urls. Realurl includes the "base" tag in our document head (<base href="http://www.mysite.com/" />) so our internal links are relative links, for example:
<a href="section/category/page/index.html">

All internal links are composed of "base"+relative link.

The following is suggested in the Webmaster Center Help Center:

‘Where possible, use absolute rather than relative links. (For instance, when linking to another page in your site, link to www.example.com/mypage.html rather than simply mypage.html).’

If this is our problem, can we transform our relative path into absolute even if we have the base tag?

I had the same issue but google showed me several of the urls that were being redirected.

I assume from you post there arn't any url's showing so you can't check them?

In my case I did a bunch of 301's but missed checking a couple boxes so the redirect was actually a 302.
