Remove trailing slash from url using rewrite rule

Question

Hello Team,

I am getting 403 forbidden error when accessing page with trailing slash at the end like: https://host/products/productname/
If I access page without slash at the end of the url it works fine like https://host/products/productname
To resolve this issue I tried adding rewrite rule inside Ifmodule as below:
# To remove a trailing slash from the end of the URL
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.*)/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]
</IfModule>

But still am getting same error 403 forbidden. Anything going wrong here? Please let me know if anyone has experienced such issue.

Hello @supriya-hande, you can try this:

<IfModule disp_apache2.c>
   DirectorySlash Off
   SetHandler dispatcher-handler
</IfModule>
