Think I've found another bug.
It affects v2.3.7 and also v2.4.0
404 pages are not handled correctly if URLs are in the following format
- Code: Select all
http://www.domainname.com/index.php?option=com_k2
As someone who has merged from a Joomla installation where the URLs were all formatted like this, it is extremely important that these sorts of URLs are handled appropriately and a 404 page is displayed.
You can see what I mean in a live example by visiting the demo website using this address:
http://pkp.sfu.ca/ojs/demo/present/index.php?option=com_k2Any help in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Ed.

Hi Ed,
Do you mean that you're expecting to see a 404 when e.g. the "option" parameter is something OJS doesn't recognize? That's not a bug -- I can't think of any application will respond that way to a parameter it doesn't use.

Hi Alec!
I do indeed mean that I am expecting a 404 page.
Is there a work around for something like this?
Thanks!

Hi imtechnology,
You would either have to modify the code (lib/pkp/classes/core/PKPPageRouter.inc.php for the most conceptually clean modification, or index.php for the quickest hack OTOH) or make use of mod_rewrite rules or some other Apache-level configuration options. In my opinion, configuring Apache to catch these would be the cleanest solution.
