DEPRECATION WARNING

This documentation is not using the current rendering mechanism and is probably outdated. The extension maintainer should switch to the new system. Details on how to use the rendering mechanism can be found here.

Extension Manager configuration

Go to the Extension Manager, find the extension pagenotfoundhandling and click on the extension name to open the configuration interface.

The available options are structured in four groups:

Basic options

Property

Default: 0

Property

defaultTemplateFile

Data type

string

Description

This template will be used if no default404Page is configured. See section Available markers for details on marker substitution

Default: EXT:pagenotfoundhandling/Resources/Private/Templates/default.html

Property

additional404GetParams

Data type

string

Description

These will be appended to the URL when fetching default404Page. The marker ###CURRENT_URL### is replaced within this string.

Default: empty

Property

default403Page

Default: empty

Property

Default: empty

Property

additional403GetParams

Default: empty

Advanced options

Property

absoluteReferencePrefix

Data type

string

Description

If your TYPO3 installation runs in a subdir of the DOCUMENT_ROOT, add the relative path from DOCUMENT_ROOT to the installation here

Default: empty

Property

disableDomainConfig

Data type

boolean

Description

Domain dependent configurations will be ignored. The TCA of sys_domain will not be extended.

Default: 0

Property

preserveFeuserLogin

Data type

boolean

Description

Preserve a frontend user login session by sending the session cookie when fetching the 404/403 page.

This option internally enables the option sendXForwardedForHeader when a valid login session is detected.

To get this working, you need to configure your TYPO3 installation in one of the following ways.

1: Configure the IP address of the machine, where TYPO3 runs on as reverseProxyIP:

$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SYS']['reverseProxyIP'] = '127.0.0.1';
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SYS']['reverseProxyHeaderMultiValue'] = 'first';

2: Alternatively you can disable the lockIP for frontend login sessions:

CAUTION: this decreases the security of the frontend login sessions and is NOT RECOMMENDED, especially for public websites! Use only if you know what you do.

$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['FE']['lockIP'] = 0;

Default: 0

Property

requestTimeout

Data type

int

Description

The timeout for the HTTP request to fetch the 404/403 page. Zero (0) means no timeout, or “wait forever”, which is not recommended.

Important

This works only in TYPO3 >= 8.1, since as from this version, TYPO3 uses GuzzleHttp as backend for HTTP requests.

Default: 10

Language options

Property

languageParam

Data type

string

Description

The GET variable that holds the language uid. In most cases this will be “L”, which is the TYPO3 default.

Default: L

Property

ignoreLanguage

Data type

boolean

Description

The language parameter in the request URL ($_GET['L']) will be ignored, default language will be used. See also option defaultLanguageKey.

Default: 0

Property

defaultLanguageKey

Data type

boolean

Description

This tells the extension which language is your default language. You can use values like ‘de’ for german, ‘dk’ for danish, etc.. Use this only if your default language is not english (TYPO3 default). At the moment the extension only supports german and english, to use your own language, see the option locallangFile below.

Default: default

Property

forceLanguage

Data type

int

Description

This language is one from sys_language (the pid is shown in the selector box). So, if you have no language records in your setup, the selector box will be empty. If this option is used $_GET['L'] will be ignored.

Default: empty

Property

locallangFile

Data type

string

Description

This language xml file will be included and used for marker substitution. See section Available markers for details.

Default: empty

HTTP options

Property

default403Header

Data type

options

Description

Sent when a pages is not found because of access restrictions. Set to Default to prevent sending special headers.

Available options:

  • Default (Do not send special headers)
  • HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
  • HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized
  • HTTP/1.1 402 Payment Required
  • HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden

Be sure to configure $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SYS']['reverseProxyIP'] correctly when using this feature.

Default: 0

Property

additionalHeaders

Data type

string

Description

Send additional HTTP headers with the 404/403 page response. Multiple headers are separated with ‘|’

Default: empty

Property

digestAuthentication

Data type

string

Description

If the 404/403 page is access restricted with HTTP digest authentication, you can configure the username and password here.

Format: username:password (colon-separated username and password)

HTTP digest authentication requires cURL to be installed and enabled in $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SYS']['curlUse']

Note: this is NOT required for HTTP basic authentication (this type of authentication works out-of-the box)!

Default: empty
