Custom web page not showing

10 years 1 month ago
#58626
I have created a custom web page to show or meeting agendas - an excel like table.

The custom web page is named "NAC_Meeting_Agendas.html" and it had been working up until a couple of days ago. My backup administrator did make some changes to it, and I'm thinking something went wrong there. I can still edit it, however, when I try to access it, the page does not come up but rather the home page is re-displayed. The URL for the page as shown in the menu frame is:

newalbanycommunicators.toastmastersclubs...Meeting_Agendas.html

I seem to remember this happening before but cannot remember the circumstances.

Help?

I am having the same problem today. I made a video of the circumstances (see attached). Still confused. I had just used it about twenty minutes before with no problem. BTW, am using Firefox on Windows 8.1, Lenovo Thinkpad.

I see that videos aren't accepted. If I just use images you won't be able to see what actually happens. I put the video up on my Microsoft One Drive. Here is the link, I hope you can look at it:

I don't understand what was happening. It's working again. I can get to the custom agenda page we use.

Color me confused.

Well, as I sometimes say, patience and persistence pays off... ;)

This was a browser caching issue--a pain to diagnose/troubleshoot as you can see. I adjusted the cache control logic as the fix. If you clear your browser cache for your website (reload link will probably work), then you should be all set.

What produced the issue... You likely tried to access your members only custom page from a link when you were not logged in. The page server code does a redirect to your home page in that case, but previous to today it was not preventing the browser from storing the target of the redirect (home page) in the browser cache. As a result, your home page got stored in your browser cache as the target of clicking the link, regardless of the fact that you only there because of the redirect. I tweaked the code to prevent the caching issue.
