Allow URLs without extension to bypass the dispatcher

Avatar

Level 4

Hi,

We have redirects with Sling Mappings, but some of them are redirects without extension. Therefore the dispatcher is blocking these requests.

What are recommended ways to fix this?

Vanities are working fine, since I am using the vanitiy_url section. And redirects with extension as well, the extensionless and with trailing slash are the problem.

Thanks.

Please refer following Article on how to handle Extensionless URL and their caching

The idea is

  • Dispatcher will NOT cache any URL without extension.
  • Append .html to all HTML requests so it can be cached by the dispatcher.
  • This is based on the assumption the publisher is able to translate friendly URL with .html extension

For example:

/test -> it doesn't work

/test.html -> it does work

Apache 2.2.15 and Dispatcher version is 4.2.2
