Hi Folks
just to confirm that this can be fixed by a better apache configuration.
the following seems to work:
<IfModule mod_fastcgi.c>
Alias /browse "/var/www/fastcgi/ndg.fcgi/browse"
Alias /layout "/var/www/fastcgi/ndg.fcgi/layout"
<Directory /var/www/fastcgi>
SetHandler fastcgi-script
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
# following socket ought to be setup by paste via ndg.ini
FastCgiExternalServer /var/www/fastcgi/ndg.fcgi -socket /tmp/ndg_fastcgi.soc
</IfModule>
and urlmap does its magic.
the key is to make apache recognise what bit is user modifiable in the
alias string (i.e the bit after .fcgi) ... and that's what goes into
path_info
Cheers
Bryan
