Last year after a long migration process we upgraded from a fairly old version of ZC to the then current 1.5.6c. Everything went fine with the upgrade and the site has been working well. This last month Google has started highlighting redirect loop errors for deleted products. After having a dig through the settings, it would appear that if I enable automatic rewrites in utlimate URLS & then try to visit the url for a now deleted product, it will fire a redirect loop in firefox. This confirms the behaviour I'm seeing in search console.

if I disable automatic rewrites, the "sorry, product not found" page will show and after a 302 redirect will show a 404 header.

I've used the automatic redirects in ultimate urls for years & never noticed a problem, but for some reason it is now not playing ball. I don't know where to start. My .htaccess is the same as when it did work on the older version of Zen Cart. I've compared the two and all ultimate URLS rewrites are present & correct. For now I've disabled automatic rewrites & will let google uses the canonical/nofollows generated by zen cart. The changes include the newer version of ZC & now running on php 7.3.27

Can anyone point me in the right direction? I tried uninstaling ultimate URLS completely & have freshly installed version 3.0.8 from numinix website. Still can't get it to work as expected. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, John.
Didn't mean numinix website, that was for easy google anlytics plugin I also upgraded. Apologies, 3.0.8 of this plugin was installed directly from the ZC plugins page.
