Hello - In HTTPRequest.py, the HTTPRequest._servletPath is initialized from REQUEST_URI, if present in the request env, and then falls back to SCRIPT_URL.
This poses a problem for us because we are using apache with mod_rewrite to transform the url before it gets to Webware. Apache does not seem to allow modifying of the REQUEST_URI variable, but it does allow modification of the SCRIPT_URL variable. The result is that our lovely mod_rewrite'd uri is ignored by Webware when calculating the _servletPath of the request. Is there any reason why REQUEST_URI is prioritized before SCRIPT_URL? It seems more logical to reverse the order. Example of the problem: url submitted by the browser: http://mydomain.com/es/path/to/servlet url after modification by mod_rewrite: http://mydomain,com/path/to/servlet REQUEST_URI value : /es/path/to/servlet PATH_INFO value: /path/to/servlet SCRIPT_URL value: /path/to/servlet the _servletPath is: /es This means that cookies are written to the path of "/es/" rather than the path of "/" which causes users to think their session has been lost. We worked around this by forcing our own value for _servletPath, but it could also be resolved by reversing the priority of SCRIPT_URL and REQUEST_URI when setting the request's _servletPath.
