Dispatcher not retrieving content with Vhost but will display already cached content

[kentt20248023]

We have a domain resolving to our AEM environment and we are seeing this issue.

A call using the domain "http://staging.thissite.com/page" will not retrieve the content at /content/site/en/page.html however we do get the site custom error page.

If the content has been cached previously using "http://dispatcher.url.com/content/thissite/en/page.html" then it will be served correctly using the URL above.

So our virtual host redirects are working and do point to the cache location but will not make the dispatcher retrieve the content if not already cached.

Our dispatcher logs are set to debug(3) but we are not seeing any entries except for the single call and a 404.

The one difference between the two calls that I can see is that during the 404 we are getting [publishfarm/0] and during a successful return we are getting [publishfarm/-].

Dear Kent,

Thank you for your question to this forum,

Sorry few questions to understand issue better..

Could you kindly check permissions(groups) on your apache process && write location, is it allowed to create content in your folder?

How have you configured short url via Dispatcher or AEM Publisher?

Does publisher return 200 correct page?

Regards,

Peter

[kentt20248023]

We are on AMS in Azure. All Apache management is handled there. The process can write and does so for content retrieved from the front end URL.

Short URL is created by Publisher with mapping.

Using URLwith no cache:

Using URL with previously cached content from the traffic manager URL:

Using traffic manager URL:

So is the issue identified by  [publishfarm/0]? We have the domain in publish-vhosts.any and the custom 404 page from the site is returned.

Dear Kent,

Thank you for your reply,

Have you also added the domain to the yourSiteName.conf VirtualHost config file?

Regards,

Peter

Thank you,

May I ask you to add following config to your dispatcher as specified in oficial Adobe documentation[0]

[0] Apache mod_rewrite not being respected

1) Make sure you set the DispatcherUseProcessedURL to 1 (This tells Dispatcher to use the pre processed URL)

Now, after implementing this rule, please check you Publisher access.log and request.log and verify whether you get request from your Dispatcher for /content/bcbs/ecards/en/viewall/nutrition/healthy-lunches.html

Regards,

Peter

[kentt20248023]

Yes, DispatcherUseProcessedURL is set to 1.

As I said in my initial post, the content is cached when calling directly to the dispatcher front end URL. The non-dispatcher URL can then return the content since it is in cache. So all redirects and DispatcherUseProcessedURL are working.

If the content is not in cache the non-dispatcher URL cannot get dispatcher to fetch it from publisher.

Using URL with content not in cache(404):

Using traffic manager URL(works):

Using URL with content in cache(works):

Hello kentt20248023​

DispatcherUseProcessedURL basically means that the dispatcher will processed/rewritten URL rather than the originally supplied URL to the webserver and the setting being set to "1" is accurate. However, you must confirm that the web server that's hosting the dispatcher has been restarted ever since you've made this update.

If the above has been followed, could you please set the DispatcherLogLevel to trace i.e. DispatcherLogLevel trace instead of DispatcherLogLevel 3, restart the web server that's hosting the dispatcher and then replicate the issue? You can post the snippet where 404 is thrown and that can give us some more details around the issue.

Hello kentt20248023​

This isn't a dispatcher or a caching issue. The publisher specifically denied the request and it's likely due to the fact that at first you're hitting the website with http protocol,

Firsltly, http://staging.OURSITE.com/viewall/nutrition/just-eat-half​ fails the first time because the Publisher isn't configured to accept http traffic. I am assuming that staging.oursite.com is the Load Balancer and it should be a https site rather than http. Please test this with https:// protocol

Secondly, the reason https://OURDISPATCHER.adobecqms.net/content/bcbs/ecards/en/viewall/nutrition/just-eat-half .html works is because it's an https:// request, and therefore publisher accepts it.

Lastly, http://staging.OURSITE.com/viewall/nutrition/just-eat-half​ works because this time around because the request didn't have to go to the publisher, and therefore no possibility of a rejection.

In short, please use https:// url with your staging.outsite.com url and your issue should be solved.

Thanks,

Aneet Arora
