How to point the default dispatcher URL to a particular site homepage?

[Silvia_Joyce_Balraj]

I have multiple projects such as /content/A, content/B, content/C. I want my dispatcher default URL to point to C homepage. Currently its pointing to Bs homepage. I m not sure which file needs to be changed to achieve this. Any help is highly appreciated.

Thank you.

This sounds like you have a redirect somewhere which will point to "B" when you hit "/". You can be sure by checking the headers of the request, so I would start looking at the rewrite rules first.

My understanding is you have a domain with 3 regions:

www.sourcedcode.com/en-a 

www.sourcedcode.com/en-b 

www.sourcedcode.com/en-c 

When you visit www.sourcedcode.com , you want visitors to resolve www.sourcedcode.com /en-c.

Currently it sounds like the root page, which is www.sourcedcode.com / is pointing towww.sourcedcode.com /en-b.

Here's what you need to do to push users to www.sourcedcode.com /en-c. when visiting www.sourcedcode.com.

At ease, find all the rewrite rules, where the file will have the redirect rules all organized, and then

try to find (existing configuration)

RewriteRule ^/?$ https://www.sourcedcode.com/en-b [R=301,L]

change it to
RewriteRule ^/?$ https://www.sourcedcode.com/en-c [R=301,L]

(if you are using AEMaaCS, push the code into the respository), and if you are using on-prem, then restart the web server.

in doing this, now visiting www.sourcedcode.com or www.sourcedcode.com/, visitors will resolve to https://www.sourcedcode.com/en-c.

You can refer to the wknd code base at https://github.com/adobe/aem-guides-wknd/blob/main/dispatcher/src/conf.d/rewrites/rewrite.rules

The rewrite.rules file has a rule for redirecting all root traffic as shown below - 

# redirect all root traffic to US home page
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/?$
RewriteRule ^(/)$ /us/en.html [R=301,L,E=cdncache]

Modify the /us/en.html to content/C.html in your own codebase. Hope this helps!

Here we need to check the rewrite rule, thats expanding/rewriting the URL. 

• Find the vhost file that matches the domain.
• Check for rewrite in the vhost file as suggested by @BrianKasingli  and update it with the required path.
