The page isn’t redirecting properly

[mprough]

Hey guys.... I have a head scratcher on a 1.5.4 store running PHP 5.6

This page https://www.marysminiatures.net/ index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=8714 is for a deleted product. The page is trying (like 20x) to redirect to https://www.marysminiatures.net/ index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=0 which obviously doesn't exist.

The store is set to send missing pages to page_not found which is working for other 404's... This redirect never completes and Google is crying about it in webmaster's tools.

Any ideas?

It makes a loop of rederict 302 infinite, but would not it be better to make a rederict on a page that exists and that comes close to that product? Or do a rederict on page 404? always better than having an infinite rederict

No a 404 is the correct response as the page no longer exists. We re-use product page when we can, but we delete products by the hundreds a month due to them going out of stock. Besides, it is not redirecting properly, that's the point.

Ups I did not understand, but it does so with any product that does not exist, it seems that page 404 is not loaded. if you go www marysminiatures dot / index.php? main_page = index & cPath = 61111111 nonexistent category has a header 200 instead of 404 page not found, instead if it is a product that does not exist goes in loup with a rederict 302. Obviously if a product does not exist the better it is a 410, I have solved by putting a header 410 instead of a 404 on module / page / product_info / header.php. But here the thing seems more complicated is not that has changed some files the customer?

There are errors in the log folder

The correct response is a 404... that is what it is supposed to do and that is what I need to happen. I have already checked logs and relevant files. I appreciate your concern, but I don't need an opinion about a response code when it can never happen because the page is redirecting incorrectly.

where did you set the store to send missing pages to page_not found? from within ZC (and if so where)? or from a cpanel or other domain setting?

in addition, can you post the complete contents of:

/includes/modules/pages/product_info/header_php.php

Configuration >> My Store >> Missing Page Check

Configuration >> My Store >> Missing Page Check

the MISSING_PAGE_CHECK checks 1 thing and 1 thing only; whether the $_GET variable for main_page is valid. which in your URL, it clearly is. that variable is product_info.

i'm still waiting for the code of the script that i requested which may provide more light on the subject.

[mprough]

What script?

[carlwhat]

in addition, can you post the complete contents of:

/includes/modules/pages/product_info/header_php.php

the script listed above.... or perhaps you call it a file?

best.
