Get user requested URL (valid/invalid) in ColdFusion

I am trying to make a custom router. For this I am trying to grab the user requested URL from the application.cfc. The problem is when a invalid directory or URL is received lucee directly throwing 404 error. I just want to get the requested URL and bypass this 404 error. Moreover, after grabbing the URL I want to manually handle the user request.

The problem has been solved. Basically, you have to send each request through index.cfm. So, if you pass an url like localhost:8888/index.cfm/hello/wow you will not encounter an error and the requested url can be fetched using CGI.REQUEST_URL (e.g. /hello/wow).

Moreover, if you want to remove index.cfm marker you have to enable URL rewrite. Then the url (localhost:8888/hello/wow) will work without throwing any error.

For URL rewrite refer to these,

In your Application.cfc, employ the onMissingTemplate() function which will execute when a template is not found. You can put your custom code handling in there.
