[EP-tech] handle_404 / catch404

[Bernd Diekmann]

Hello,

after changing the reposity software to EPrints 3.3.7 we tried to 
establish the handle_404 / catch404 mechanism for redirects. But even 
with hardcoded urls (http://abc.xx) for redirection the apache (!) says:
>
>
>   Not Found
>
> The requested URL /g1 was not found on this server.
>
> Additionally, a 302 Found error was encountered while trying to use an 
> ErrorDocument to handle the request.
>
Without the activation of "cgi/handle_404/catch404" (defining a url for 
redirecting), the browser shows the eprints 404-error page.

The access_log shows a redirect:
> ... "GET /g1 HTTP/1.1" 302 - "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; 
> rv:15.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/15.0"
In the error_log  the 404-state this entry can be found:
> ... File does not exist: .../html/de/g1

Does anyone use this feature ?


Best regards,
Bernd Diekmann
