ID: 64951 Comment by: a dot panek at brainsware dot org Reported by: a dot panek at brainsware dot org Summary: SCRIPT_NAME acts strange Status: Not a bug Type: Bug Package: Built-in web server Operating System: Linux & Windows PHP Version: 5.4.15 Assigned To: ab Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Oh and what I forgot to mention: I currently can't use __FILE__ because the code using SCRIPT_NAME is not in the actual index.php (aka router script) but in another part of the framework. The actual index.php also doesn't have any code besides the composer autoloader and the framework "boot" script being required. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-06-03 12:28:51] a dot panek at brainsware dot org 1) I am using the router script according to the example in the documentation: http://php.net/manual/en/features.commandline.webserver.php#example-381 ("Example #4 Checking for CLI Web Server Use", "To reuse a framework router script during development with the CLI web server and later also with a production web server:") This implies that I can reuse my current index.php, put in checks whether a file exists, and keep the rest as-is. I can't do this right now because SCRIPT_NAME doesn't behave as-is, but instead as if I had Apache + mod_rewrite enabled - as you said. I can't seem to find that behaviour documented anywhere? That seems like either a bug in the documentation or the server. 2) If my router script is not called "index.php" but something else, SCRIPT_NAME *always* holds the URI instead of the actual script path. I haven't seen that documented either. (And it feels wrong to have that behaviour without any documentation about it) 3a) If I do not use a router script and try to access a URI with a file extension (like /something.json), the server always returns a 404 if given URI doesn't point to an actual file. Even if this is not considered a bug, it's not good to be that unpredictable. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-06-03 07:29:40] a...@php.net Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php Using the router script in the command line is the same as using mod_rewrite with apache, basically something like this RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^/hellou$ /hello.php [L] is equivalent to php -S localhost:8080 -t. hello.php With this, requesting /hellou under apache will result $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] => /hellou __FILE__ => full path to hello.php If you ommit the router script, you'll get the apache behaviour without mod_rewrite. To do so, in your example php -S localhost:8080 -t. The current document root will be like a normal htdocs with apache. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-05-31 07:28:09] a dot panek at brainsware dot org Description: ------------ When sending a request that has a file extension OR the request doesn't go to a index.php (a test.php, e.g.), the SCRIPT_NAME holds the URI instead of the actual current script name as documented here http://php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.server.php "Contains the current script's path. This is useful for pages which need to point to themselves. The __FILE__ constant contains the full path and filename of the current (i.e. included) file." So basically the built-in server doesn't act as documented except when you use a file called "index.php" as router script and don't use a file extension in your URI. I tested this on Linux and Windows resulting in the exact same behaviour. Test script: --------------- <?php # index.php # # php -S localhost:8080 -t. index.php # # curl -i -X GET -H 'Accept: application/json' localhost:8080/something.json # -> '/something.json' # curl -i -X GET -H 'Accept: application/json' localhost:8080/something # -> '/index.php # # php -S localhost:8080 -t. test.php # -> always the uri echo $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']; ?> Expected result: ---------------- /index.php Actual result: -------------- /something.json ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64951&edit=1
