Hi,

this bug report is a bit tricky, and it is difficult for me to see the responsible module.

First of all, this is the problem:
I am using pathauto, ctools, panels (mostly latest devs) to have nice taxonomy urls

URL: http://mysite/vocab/parentterm1/childterm1

I merge childterm1 into another term and rewrite the url to

URL: http://mysite/vocab/parentterm5/childterm2

The problem is, the ctools/panel page responds to the sub-url: http://mysite/vocab/parentterm5 a situation similar to the views problem addressed by http://drupal.org/project/views404. As a result the rediret does not work and I end up with duplicate content from the sub-url.

I tried adjusting the module weight, but without success.

Any suggestions how to address this problem?

just a small addition, for the sake of correctness, the url redirect is set to the new taxonomy/term/12345 which is then rewritten by global redirect. Anyway the first redirect does not work.

EDIT2:
I managed to work around the panels/ctools behaviour and still the redirect does not work.

I realized that my problem is the intended functionality by Drupal core.

sorry for taking your time.
