This may have been user error. I programatically inserted a large number of records into the flow_meters table, and then restarted radiant. However, the catch URLs were of the format: /my-parent-page#some-anchor /my-parent-page#some-other-anchor I was trying to have it identify and redirect based on the anchor name, which I presume is not possible.

The problem here seems to have been local browser cache, as the redirects are working nicely now. Thanks, JT
