"View on Website" link gives 404 error when pages other than start page are viewed
If you are running on DXP, can you open the log stream and look for any errors?

Hi Kenny,
Yes, it gives error in UrlService but since this error occurs only in Production site. Its difficult to debug in local. Its not reproducible in other environments Edit mode

Couple of things you can try. Depending on your experience, you may just ignore me:
- pages you are trying to view, are they published?
- What language has the page been created in and is that the language setup against the site in 'manage website?'
- How are your controllers and views setup in the code against the page type you've created? Can you download the alloy cms site and compare your MVC structure?

Hi Surjit,
The pages are published. View on website worked fine in March. It gives 404 from April onwards although nothing has been changed in Manage Website

- Is the site domain set up correctly in manage websites in admin mode?
- Can you browse content on the front end normally? If so can you compare the URL generated at the front end compared to the one you get with the "View on website" link

Hi David,
Yes the domain is correctly set in Manage website as it was working until March. There hasn't been any changes done for the error to pop.
We can browse the content on front end. The URL with Type Edit is set in the Edit mode which throws Error when View on Website is clicked. This Edit mode URL works fine when language is added in URL eg. https://edit-prd.abc.com/en/contactuspage

Have you set the default language on the host setting and also set as primary?
Hello, Are there any URL intercepters included after March? Can you check if this was set to child tree components other than the root. It sounds like if start page is working then this shouldn't be a problem with domain configuration. Since this is happening only for child components, Are there chances if pagetypes were changed with no view file? Is this redirecting them to somewhere else?

Another problem could be if the StartPublish date is being manipulated with code. See the blog which mentions the scenario https://blogs.perficient.com/2022/05/13/optimizely-page-publish-options-dos-and-donts/

I get a 404 error for pages other than start page when the "View on Website" link is clicked.
Is there way to resolve this ?
Any help would be highly appreciated
