Dispatcher Filter Configuration
Hello,
Well, I need to configure dispatcher so I can access a get servlet I've created. It works in author and publish instances. I've also already configured the dispatcher to run on port 8080 using docker and I'm able to access published content via port 8080. Nevertheless, when I try to access my servlet via this link: localhost:8080/bin/random-number it gives me this page with a 404 not found error when I check the browser console:
The linux command I'm using to run dispatcher on my project directory through docker is
sudo ~/aem-sdk/dispatcher/dispatcher-sdk-2.0.174/bin/docker_run.sh /home/webjump/estágio/trilha-04/aem-wknd-3.2.0/dispatcher/src host.docker.internal:4503 8080
My dispatcher filter configuration files are
1 - default_filters.any:
#
# This is the default filter ACL specifying what requests are handled by the dispatcher.
#
# DO NOT EDIT this file, your changes will have no impact on your deployment.
#

Update: this is what I'm getting with the debug mode

Now I can see that the filter is rejecting the request, even though I've modified filters.any to allow it. Did I modify the wrong file? Is the syntax wrong? Is it missing something?
1 Accepted Solution
Correct answer by
Also, in your case Dispatcher won’t cache the response because there is no file extension in the url.
What entry do you see in dispatcher log? Can you start the dispatcher in debug mode to check what happening for this request ?
It seems you are using dispatcher on local using docker for this test so you can update the DISP_LOG_LEVEL located on conf.d/variables/global.vars
[Tue Nov 28 15:01:00.932313 2023] [dispatcher:debug] [pid 313:tid 139849276103480] [client localhost:33972] Filter rejects: GET /bin/random-number HTTP/1.1Above log shows that one of filter is rejecting this path. I suspect your filters.any file is not loading in your dispatcher. Changes made on default_filter.any will never be picked up. How are you calling the filter.any file in your dispatcher setup?. Try setting up your custom farm for your site and then call your custom filters.any
Thanks for Confirming that you are now able to get the response for your servlet via dispatcher. If you looks the aem dispatcher farm.any in case it might be wknd_farm.any check for something similar inside conf.dispatcher.d/available_farms. So on your site-name_farm.any you can see several sections. /filter section is for filtering the request and to cache rules for caching the response will be inside /rules in /cache section where it might be referring to some file located inside /conf.dispatcher.d/cache/site-name-cache.any

You should not update default filter rules
you must change your won custom file with rule.
