If anybody is interested, I've attached the tiny plugin I wrote to
solve this issue for Lighttpd. I've been using this for local
development for several months. I agree, it'd be best to patch the
engine if it can be done in a way that works for "all" webservers. I
don't yet have the free time to test with Apache as well.
package Catalyst::Plugin::Lighttpd;
# $Id$
BEGIN {
our $VERSION = (split(' ', q$Revision$))[1];
}
use strict;
sub handle_request {
my ($class, %args) = @_;
if (exists $args{env}) {
# lighttpd seems to report these backward
$args{env}{PATH_INFO} ||= delete $args{env}{SCRIPT_NAME};
}
$class->NEXT::handle_request(%args);
}
1;
=head1 NAME
Catalyst::Plugin::Lighttpd - Fix Lighttpd path info
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Catalyst qw(Lighttpd);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Lighttpd seems to report PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME differently than Apache and
most other web servers. This causes Catalyst to always route URLs with trailing
slashes to the application's default action.
This plugin will fix that.
