Magento 2 CMS 404 issue

[benitt]

Hello community,

we are in the process of updating our humble little Magento 1.7 shop to the latest version 2.3

It is a multi-language store and we have succesfully migrated all customers and all categories and products. Within the categories and also in the account pages etc. the chosen template works and all seems well.

BUT one thing is driving us crazy now for days and that is the cms start page.

The content section on our home page is returning 404, "Whoops our bad..." all the time. We have tried nearly everything we could find in the net:

- setting "Single Store Mod" to "No"

- checking the url_rewrite table with an empty request_path value (noe is there)

- setting for ofweb/default/cms_home_page is there and set ok and for scope_id = 0

- adding the correct relationships in cms_page_store

- setting the "Default Web URL" to cms

- having the home page selected as "Homepage"

If we browse directly to the CMS page it works fine, but when we view it on our homepage we always get the 404 error.

As said, all store views and subcategories are working fine, only this cms main page is not :/

Does anyone maybe have a clue what is going wrong and how we could possibly get the start page running?

We would be super glad for any hint on this.

Best regards from Germany

Hi @benitt,

Have you tried this?

This is a known but in "Magento 2.1".

"This is only happening in single store mode for me. Disabling single store mode forces you to define the relationship by selecting a view when adding a new page (all store views, default store view, etc). Therefore it updates the cms_page_store table fine."

Thank You!

Hi,

thank you.

Yes. We have tried this. But it is unfortunately not making any difference.
