Default using L path segment does not work / exclude root page from path about typo3-realurl

[dmitryd]

The link to the root page contains the title of the root page, meaning I have:

It mean that it is not a root page but a page below the root page. Most likely you have a shortcut from root to this page.

"Exclude from speaking URL" does not work for the last segment. It works only for segments before the last. Otherwise it would not be possible to distinguish between the last segment and its parent page.

For the language problem, I suggest to check & clear URL cache entries and try again.

Thanks for the quick advises. Clearing cache did not help, also truncated the realurl tables manually.

This is my page tree:

There is no shortcut. The page "websites" was a menu separator, but according to (just closed) #54 I chose doctype sysfolder now. But still same behavior.

In frontend it generates "mydomain.tld/home-page" for L=0. The subpages "Produkte, etc.." do not include "home-page".
What we also do: In htaccess we force URLs without "/de/" to be redirected to with "/de/".

As default L ist not set, this leads to an error for the home page. So "/de/home-page/" leads to this error:
"Reason: Segment "home-page" was not a keyword for a postVarSet as expected on page with id=3."
Whereas the links like "/produkte" are redirected to "/de/produkte/" and this works.

I´ve updated from 1.x to 2.x with the given advices: First altered tables, then update code, then DB compare etc. The realurl_configuration was adapted from autoconf, but the right valueMap for GETvar L has been set.

Thanks for giving more hints what could be the problem. Should I provide more information?

1. Check that Websites does not have the following flag set: Use as Root Page. This checkbox should be cleared there:
   
2. Check that Home page has this flag set or has a domain record.

It looks like realurl is unable to find a proper root page id for your site. You can also check that in Systems > Configuration:

I believe in your case it is either incorrect or missing.

It´s really strange. I even checked in table "pages" that "home page" is the only page with "is_siteroot = 1" flag set.
In TYPO3_CONF_VARS the right rootpage_id = 3 is set.

This is the realurl_conf.php file:

<?php
// add domain and rootpage UID here
$configureDomains = array(
        '_DEFAULT' => 3,
        'mydomain.tld' => 3

In TypoScript is:

config {
    sys_language_uid = 0
    language = de
    defaultGetVars {
        L = 0
    }
    locale_all = de_CH.UTF-8

  //.....

   [globalVar = GP:L = 1]
    config.linkVars = L
    config.sys_language_uid = 1
    config.language = en
    config.locale_all = en_EN.utf8
[global]

[globalVar = GP:L = 2]
    config.linkVars = L
    config.sys_language_uid = 2
    config.language = fr
    config.locale_all = fr_FR.utf8
[global]
}

Any hints how I can do more debugging etc?

[dmitryd]

config.linkVars = L must be global. Otherwise you will not get it in the url automatically. Now it is configred to be there only for L=1 and L=2, which does not make much sense because it will be there anyway. However if you make links like:

typolink {
  parameter = 5
  additionalParams = &x=y
}

than you will not have L=0 (and /en/ in realurl) in the link because config.linkVars is not set.

Let's fix that first. Please, remove it from conditions and move to global scope.

[merzilla]

Oh my! Yes! config.linkVars was not in global scope for default language. Damn... so sorry for that. The project was "reconfigured" and i guess due to a copy-paste error this was missed.

Now "de" is in path by default. Great!
What is still not working is the "home page". E.g. the logo of the homepage is an image that is linked with typolink to typolink.parameter = 3
But it renders http://mydomain.tld/de/home-page/ now.

What I would need is http://mydomain.tld/de/

[dmitryd]

Fix should be in 2.0.5 😄

[merzilla]

Hi Dmitry,

thank you very much for the fast bugfix. I can confirm that the link to the "home page" is now correct.
