RegisterRoute troubles in module upgrade

Hello,

I'm trying to port a custom module from a 1.x version of cmsms to the latest 2.2.x version. Most things are fine but I'm having trouble with RegisterRoute as what worked before no longer appears to function in quite the same manner.

The SetParameters function has been split into InitializeFrontend and InitializeAdmin, thus:

Code: Select all

function InitializeFrontend() {
$this->RegisterRoute('/detail\/(?P<refMunged>[^\/]+)\/(?P<titleMunged>[^\/]+)$/i',array('returnid'=>$pageID,'action'=>'detail'));

$this->RegisterRoute('/search\/not-found$/i',array('returnid'=>$pageID,'action'=>'default','invalidRef'=>true));

$this->SetParameterType('refMunged',CLEAN_STRING);
$this->SetParameterType('titleMunged',CLEAN_STRING);
}

function InitializeAdmin() {
$this->CreateParameter('refMunged','');
$this->CreateParameter('titleMunged','');
}
Lazy loading is deactivated for now as I understand that requires static routes, am I right?

We are passing certain variables in the RegisterRoute function, such as the returnid as we've set them via a preference rather than have them in the url, I prefer it that way.

The sort of urls we are passing are like:

https://example.com/detail/zzxd_1235671239/badgers-are-us.html

The structure of the urls is unchanged between the versions and the regular expressions are the same too.

Can anyone suggest what I've omitted or where I should start looking for the issue? The error log is not giving me any information.

Thanks,

Mark.
