Redirect

Post by mite »

I define a base URL like: http://www.mysite.com and the index page (index.htm) rediret to another page in the same site (example: home.htm) then webinator dosn't walk... only found two pages http://www.mysite.com and http://www.mysite.com/home.htm.

I try to define a category like http://www.mysite.com/test/* and the index page (index_test.htm) rediret to another page in the same site and in the same subdirectory (example: home_test.htm) and I use a URL File that contain a single string "http://www.mysite.com/test" but webinator have the same problem... found only for pages
http://www.mysite.com
http://www.mysite.com/home.htm
http://www.mysite.com/test
http://www.mysite.com/test/home_test.htm

For redirect the pages a use a JavaScript ("window.location")

I use Webinator 5.1.50 and I set Max Redirects=2

Thanks

If http://www.mysite.com/home.htm is in the index then it followed the redirect. Are there links on that page? If you go to List/Edit URLs and check what do you see? Any errors reported?

There aren't any errors. In the index page (index.htm) there aren't links only a javascript to redirect to home page (home.htm) where it's possbile to find all links.

If List/Edit URLs shows all the pages then it sounds as if they were all indexed. If you check the details of the home.htm and then Children does it list all the pages you expect? If you click on one of those links is the content correct?

You can also try crawling with Verbosity set to 4, which should tell you why each link found that was not crawled was not crawled.

If it doesn't show any Children under http://www.mysite.com/home.htm then it is not seeing the links on that page for some reason. Can you open a ticket and send a copy of the home.htm page?
