Do non-page (or alias) URLs flow through the site precontrollers?

Denise Bowker

I would like to have ALL URLs that hit our LSDS server trigger the running of the site's pre-controllers.

Use case: We are retiring (99% retiring) one of our web sites and moving all the content to another server. Of course all the URLs are different. Some we want to direct to new URLs, others we want 404 and some, for legal reasons, we need to leave alone and the content must be presented with a 200 response code.

I have written a precontroller to do this, but when I send ****/yyy.jsp and ****/yyy.pdf to LiveSite, the controller doesn't execute.

Is this possible?

I have a backup plan, but it's UGLY.
