Remove trailing slash from url using rewrite rule

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>

    Hi @mahedi_sabuj thanks for your reply. But DirectorySlash Off is already there in our projects .vhost file inside /my-aem-project/dispatcher/src/conf.d/available_vhosts/aemproject.vhost

    Not sure if we need to add explicit rewrite rule for it.

    Hi @supriya-hande, Can you please share the disp_apache2.c section from the vhost?

    Hello @supriya-hande 

     

    The following rule should work.

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^(.+?)/$ $1 [R=301,L]
