Is there a secret sauce for telling Coldbox (running on Commandbox with URL rewrites enabled) not to try to process the web request

/assets2/img/icons/socrates.png

as a CB request? My browser is just asking for the image part of the CSS layout, but CB is saying “not gonna happen,” thinking that `The event: assets2.img is not a valid registered event.``. Do I need to put some sort of “ignore” folder(s) in the config?

Do you have something like this in your rules?

Copy code

<condition type="request-uri" operator="notequal">\.(bmp|gif|jpe?g|png|css|js|txt|xls|ico|swf|woff|ttf|otf)$</condition>

There's an example at https://coldbox.ortusbooks.com/the-basics/routing/requirements/rewrite-rules#tuckey-rewrite

Nope. That would seem to be what I need. 👍

Confused again. In the existing

urlrewrite.xml

file, there’s these lines

<!-- Do not rewrite paths that point to real files or directories -->

<condition type="request-filename" operator="notdir"/>

<condition type="request-filename" operator="notfile"/>

Which should mean that this “real” file request shouldn’t get processed by Lucee/ColdBox, right?

I’m an idiot. The file itself was missing, which then triggered Tuckey/CommandBox/Lucee/CB to think it was a URL needing to be processed. 😳

Yep, any existing files/folders will not be rewritten.

That's a common mistake 🙂
