README

Enhanced error handlers for TYPO3's site error handling system.

Features

404 Not Found Handler

• Displays content from a configurable TYPO3 page or external URL
• Falls back to standard TYPO3 error layout if content is unavailable
• Optimized handling for web resources (CSS, JS, fonts, etc.)
• Bandwidth-saving responses for static resources

403 Forbidden Handler

• Redirects unauthenticated users to a configurable login page
• Optional fallback page for users with insufficient permissions
• Configurable return URL parameter with marker support
• Falls back to 404 handler in other cases

Handlers

Page Not Found (HTTP Status 404)

Displays content from a page or external URL.

If the resource is unavailable or the content is empty, a message in the standard TYPO3 error layout is shown.

When the requested URL denotes a web resource (eg a CSS file) only a small response is sent to save bandwidth ("Regular expression for resource file extensions", see Extension Manager Configuration).

The file extensions to be treated by default as web resources:

• css
• eot, ttf, woff, woff2
• gif, ico, jpg, jpeg, png, svg, webp
• js
• json
• xml

Forbidden (HTTP Status 403)

Redirects to a login URL if access to page without a session is not permitted.

If the user is already logged in, but has no access because of missing group rights he will be optionally redirected to a fallback page ("Show Content from Page on Missing Permissions", see Site Configuration).

In any other case a 404 "Not found" error is triggered. TYPO3 will invoke the configured error handler.

Requirements

• TYPO3 13 LTS, PHP 8.2+
• 404: A page/URL that contains a human-readable "page not found" message
• 403: A URL that performs a login and a redirect to a supplied URL (eg. extension "felogin")
• the web server must be able to reach itself under the configured domain

Installation

Install via composer

composer require plan2net/sierrha

Extension Manager Configuration

Regular Expression for Resource File Extensions:

This is the default regular expression.

css|eot|gif|ico|jpe?g|js(?:on)|png|svg|ttf|webp|woff2?|xml

Enable Debug Mode:

In case of configuration errors a detailed error will be shown when in debug mode or if the HTTP request comes from an IP listed in $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SYS']['devIPmask']. Otherwise, the error will be passed on to be handled by TYPO3.

Site Configuration

404 "not found"

On tab "Error Handling" create a new handler.

HTTP Error Status Code: "404" How to handle Errors: "PHP Class"

Save the configuration.

ErrorHandler Class Target (FQCN): Plan2net\Sierrha\Error\StatusNotFoundHandler Show Content from Page on Not Found: TYPO3 page or external URL

403 "forbidden"

On tab "Error Handling" create a new handler.

HTTP Error Status Code: "403" How to handle Errors: "PHP Class"

Save the configuration.

ErrorHandler Class Target (FQCN): Plan2net\Sierrha\Error\StatusForbiddenHandler Login Page: TYPO3 page or external URL Show Content from Page on Missing Permissions: TYPO3 page or external URL Return Parameter for Login Page URL: URL query parameter of the login page without leading ? or &

Note: The parameter for the login page used by the extension "felogin" is return_url=###URL###.

URL Markers

The return parameter of the URL supports marker substitution.

Caching

Error pages are cached in TYPO3's page cache. For TYPO3 pages (not external URLs), the cache is automatically invalidated when page content changes.
