Comment (by kalpeshh):

 I verified testcases below. And everything seems to be working as
 expected.


 **Permalink**: `/%category%/%postname%.html`

 **Test case 1:**
 `http://localhost:8889/uncategorized/hello-world.html`

 ✅ Working as expected and not giving 404

 **Test case 2:**
 `http://localhost:8889/0/hello-world.html`

 ✅ Working as expected and not giving 404 (as category index exist)


 **Test case 3:**
 `http://localhost:8889/0/

 ❌ Working but should have given 404


 **Test case 4:**
 `http://localhost:8889/1/

 ✅ Working as expected and giving 404
