ErrorDocument Retain Incorrect URL

Hi AEM Community, 

 

I am using the below Error Document directive for redirecting to custom error pages - 

 

ErrorDocument 404 /errors/404.html

 Currently the rule is working correctly but I have a requirement to retain the URL which the user entered.

 As this will help with user being able to correct the URL more promptly.

 

However, currently my URL also gets updated with the above.

 

I had read the below in a blog -

When you have absolute URL in ErrorDocument 404 it will perform full redirect. However using a relative URL will only do an internal rewrite to prevent URL changing in browser.

 

Am I missing any steps to have the user URL retained in my browser ?

 

Thanks in advance. Any inputs/help @kautuk_sahni , @arunpatidar ?

 

Best Regards,

Rohan Garg

    Hi,

    If you are not explicitly redirecting then path stays the same

    check the example image at https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/adobe-experience-manager/aem-dispatcher-errordocument-url-not-showing-up/m-p/539593/highlight/true#M134037

    Hi ,

    This does not perform redirect

    ErrorDocument 404 /errors/404.html

    I think you have other rules which are doing 301/302 redirect, please check those rules.

      @arunpatidar - The ErrorDocument is working fine as when no matching path is found in publish and it returns 404 to dispatcher this URL is picked up.

      I wanted to know if there is a way to retain the original URL that the user entered.
