"Object not found" when accessing Sub-Page (Pretty URLs, mod_rewrite)

Permalink
Hey guys.

We recently "finished" out site and put it online. It was online before but we moved it from a subdomain to the real domain.

After doing so, we're experiencing some minor issues with accessing Sites via PrettyURLs path.

Our sitemap is not reachable using its PrettyURLs-Name "sitemap". But using the good old cID=XXX works very well.

It seems like C5 isn't even interested in doing something - the "Object not found" is directly delivered through the server - it's not my page_not_found.php.

Has anyone ever had this issue?

Could it be mod_reqrite related? (actually unedited):
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}/index.html !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}/index.php !-f
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
</IfModule>
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/plain
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/xml
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/css
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/xml
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/xhtml+xml
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/rss+xml

BTW: Another bug that occures sometimes is that after creating a new Sub-Page to home, it was not accessable through the "Visit"-Button in the backend - probably due the same issue.

Thanks!

Can you post the exact error message that refers to the 'Object not found'?

Also, things I check after I move a site.

1) Clear concrete5's cache.
2) Turn off all caching until it's working.
3) Turn off Pretty URL's and then turn them back on again.
4) Delete all files below '[root]/files/cache' leaving the cache folder in place but empty.

Hay MHawke!

Thanks for your reply, I cleared the cache and toggled Pretty URLs right before my post.

But I think we've just found it.

Seems like my boss uploaded a "sitemap.xml" and a "sitemap.xml.gz" for Google.

I think that caused the problem.

After I changed the .htaccess to this
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)(\.html|\.php)$ $1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]

, according to the Best Answer over here:
http://www.concrete5.org/community/forums/customizing_c5/mod_rewrit...

it spit out the XML file directly.

I now renamed the page to "site-map" and the error disappeared.

But we're still having some issues. Still investigating.

Thanks!

I'm no expert in .haccess but that answer you linked to was trying to solve a very specific requirement. If you don't have that requirement, I think that solution is overkill. When I'm in trouble, I always try to simplify things first. I would rename your existing .htaccess file for future reference and let c5 create a new, clean .htaccess file by toggling Pretty URLs. Only then would I start trying to solve issues that crop up.
