Error 404 when page has the same title as a sysfolder on the same level about typo3-realurl HOT 5 CLOSED

#42 was about shortcuts but you don't mention shortcuts. Are you sure it is related?

I just tested with up to four levels (all of them are standard pages): works fine.

Thanks for the feedback. Tried it with a new subtree and everything worked there. So I checked my pagetree again and found the real cause I think.

Additionally to the page "navpoint" under "top navigation" I have a folder also named "navpoint" in my pagetree. So the pagetree looks like this:

• top navigation
  • navpoint
    • subnavpoint
• navpoint (sysfolder)

When I rename the sysfolder to something else (although I want the sysfolder explicitely named like the normal page in this case) I get a "Page not found" error.

Can I do anything else than renaming the folder? Shouldn't sysfolders be excluded from the whole url generation process?

Folders are valid containers for pages, so they can also be in the URL, so they cannot be excluded.

Also consider realurl decoding flow. It sees /navpoint/subnavpoint.html. Firsts, it selectes navpoint for decoding. It started from the 1^st level and looks through all pages there. It finds navpoint folder, which matches the segment. So it saves this page as a starting point for further lookup. Next, it takes subnavpoint.html. It strips .html and fetches all subpages of navpoint folder. It tries to find a page, whose title can be encoded as subnavpoint. Since it cannot find it, it assumes that subnavpoint must be a postVar (like news in news/my-news-title). It cannot find such postVar and it complains.

I should update docs that page titles must be unique on the same level. If we have the following structure, it ill not be possible to decode news segment or news/backup correctly because segment can be decoded to two different pages.

Root
|- News <-- standard page
|-- Single
|- News <-- folder
|-- Backup

Just a thought - without deeper technical background - would a check for same titles and possible adding of a suffix solve the accidental 'breaking' by site maintainer be an option. Function could be switched on and off etc. and suffice for path addition selected.
E.g.

Root
|- News <-- standard page
|-- Single
|- News_01 <-- folder Title with suffix "_01" if already on same level
|-- Backup
