Homepages routing issue (404)

[infoelectr984e]

I have Magento 2.4.7-p4 installed.

My setup:

- One Store view for Dutch (store code = nl)

- One Store view for English (store code = en)

- English store view is set as default

- for both views i configured:

- Use Web Server Rewrites: yes

- Add Store Code to Urls: yes

- Base URL: https://webshop.com/

Before, both urls https://webshop.com/en/ and https://webshop.com/en/ were routing perpectly to respective hope pages.

and https://webshop.com routed to https://webshop.com/en/.

Currently, for some reason i get a 404 for both https://webshop.com/en/ and https://webshop.com/nl/

I checked a lot of settings and possible issues, but i'm kind of stuck....

One thing i want to understand, where is the routing for the store view homepages is done?

Are these added to the url_rewrite table or is this done on Apache/nginx level?

How are these changes triggered from admin panel config changes?

Hi @infoelectr984e ,

Please review the settings across different store views and, in addition, verify whether the appropriate pages have been selected for the corresponding website or store view.

Hi Ankit,
Thanks for the reply, but I have already tried and checked all these obvious ones.
Do you know which system component handles the actual routing from the store-view URL to the homepage URL?

For anyone with the same issue where the store views result in a 404 but other shop pages work properly, my issue was the below entry in my .htaccess file, which routed the store view endpoints to index.php: 

############################################

## Rewrite everything else to index.php

RewriteRule .* index.php [L]



I fixed it to add the following rewrite exception for my storefront endpoints ( /nl/ and /en/)

############################################

# don’t rewrite our language roots

RewriteRule ^(nl|en)/?$ - [L]

You may require to allow "Store code to Urls".
