URL not found

Error message

URL not found

What it means

updateRule looks up the rule to edit with rules.find(rule => rule.url == url) and throws 'URL not found' when no rule matches. The original URL acts as the lookup key; if no rule exists with exactly that URL, there is nothing to update.

Solutions

1. Refresh the rule list (getRules) and confirm the URL exists before updating.
2. Catch the error and reload the rules UI so the user sees current state.
3. Ensure the url string matches the stored one exactly (trim whitespace, same case).

Example fix

// before
await updateRule(staleUrl, newURL, profile);
// after
const rules = await getRules();
if (!rules.some(r => r.url == staleUrl)) { await refreshRulesUI(); return; }
await updateRule(staleUrl, newURL, profile);

const rules = await getRules();
if (!rules.some(r => r.url == url)) { await refreshRulesUI(); return; }

try { await updateRule(url, newURL, p, asp); } catch (e) { if (e.message === 'URL not found') { await refreshRulesUI(); notify('Rule no longer exists'); } else throw e; }

When it happens

Trigger: Calling updateRule with a url that was never added, or one that was already renamed/deleted; passing an untrimmed or differently-cased URL than the stored one.

Common situations: Two tabs editing rules concurrently (the other tab deleted/renamed the rule first); stale UI state showing a rule that no longer exists; passing the rule's display URL instead of the stored pattern.
