URGENT!!!
I´m in 4.7.4 and I´m getting page not found from crawler and "indexed" visits, this means, one time the page got indexed but now it´s not available.

For example, accessing the existing page http://mysite/cooking/whatever?page=5 exists wrote this in logs:

Location http://mysite/cooking/whatever%3Fpage%3D5
Message cooking/whatever?page=5 not found

Any idea of why the strings are not well interpreted?

Hello?
The question is, may so trivial problem, and, I don´t identify where it may come from, if it could be PHP o something in the application.
Someone is not translating 3Fs 3Ds per ? or =
Any ideas?

Hi all, I ask your help,
just a day looking around, almost everywhere, Drupal posts, PHP, htaccess (didn´t change last month - using clean URLs), common.inc, settings. I´m going to sleep and have nice %3F and %3D dreams.
But, I´m not surrended.
Making a summary, %3D and %3F referred in URL results in a page not found. May be there is a workaround to fix it, something in htaccess or an urldecode somewhere.
Someone can help?

my .htacces is as follows, nothing special, just copied an pasted from Clean Urls recommendations

I'm so bored looking for this in "my issues" for 22 days and without any answer.
Happy new year!

I don't think it's a bug, it's a feature of the webserver. When you put things like %3F in the url, the part following the %3F isn't split from the url as a parameter but is merged with the path.
