# Error 10048

## Error 10048: Preserve path suffix requires subpath matching enabled

This error indicates a configuration mismatch where the **Preserve path suffix** option is used without enabling **Subpath matching** in a URL redirect.

### Common causes

This error occurs when you enable the **Preserve path suffix** option in a redirect without enabling the **Subpath matching** option. The **Preserve path suffix** option of a URL redirect is only applicable when the **Subpath matching** option is also enabled.

### Resolution

Enable **Subpath matching** for the URL redirect with **Preserve path suffix** enabled.
