2 Solutions: 1. either you handle it in the 404.cfm in the identical way 2. the problem might be that the directory call isn't actually calling the index.cfm. Have you checked the default document that is called? If yes, and you use IIS please go to IIS and check under the properties of the website in question whether the "verify that file exists" checkbox is activated. It is located under Properties/Website/configuration (for IIS 6) and somewhere under Handler Mappings for IIS7.

Smith [mailto:m...@smithwebdesign.net] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 11. August 2010 13:12 An: cf-talk Betreff: getting path of not existent directory I am trying to use a custom 404 to serve more se friendly pages. Using application.cfc, I can properly serve this page, using the onMissingTemplate method: domain.com/art/paintings-21/index.cfm I am parsing the path obtained from #arguments.template# to get the key(21) and display the page by calling /404.cfm with the template info. I am having trouble doing the same with this, though: domain.com/art/paintings-21/ It does not seem to invoke the onMissingTemplate method, and rather calls /404.cfm directly. So in the CGI scope, I have: SCRIPT_NAME=/404.cfm PATH_INFO= How can I access the "/art/paintings-21/" to get the info I need? I would like the page displayed for both: domain.com/art/paintings-21/index.cfm domain.com/art/paintings-21/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:336180 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
