# Breaking: #102590 - TSFE->generatePage_preProcessing() removed {#breaking-102590-1701598566}

See [forge#102590](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/102590)

## Description {#description}

Frontend-related method `TypoScriptFrontendController->generatePage_preProcessing()`
has been removed without substitution.

## Impact {#impact}

Calling the methods will raise a fatal PHP error.

## Affected installations {#affected-installations}

There is little to no need for extensions to call or override this method and it
should have been marked as `@internal` already. It was part of a removed
"safety net" when extensions did set `TypoScriptFrontendController->no_cache`
to `false` after it has been set to `true` already, which is not allowed.

## Migration {#migration}

No migration, do not call the method anymore.
