PM06898: LAST MODIFIED DATE AND 304 RESPONSE CODES ARE NOT RETURNED BY WC M

 

APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When you render a content document or component from WCM the
    HTTP response does not contain the last modified date in the
    header and does not return a 304 response code if the content
    has not changed since the if-modified-since date of the request
    header.
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • The last modified date of every element on the rendered page
    needed to be considered to return an accurate last modified date
    and correct response code.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The rendering engine has been enhanced to check the last
    modified date of the page's elements and include the most recent
    one in the HTTP response header. A 304 response code is also
    returned if the rendered output has not changed since the
    if-modified-since date of the request header.
    
    A 200 response code will always be returned if the page contains
    an element with dynamic output (such as a username, taxonomy or
    search component) or an element which references an external
    resource where the last modified date can not determined (PDM,
    FED, PZN and JSP components).
    

Temporary fix
