>Number: 3469 >Category: general >Synopsis: Invalid URLs like http://server/index.html/index.html will not >give an error in somecases. >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: medium >Responsible: apache >State: open >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: apache >Arrival-Date: Tue Dec 1 07:40:01 PST 1998 >Last-Modified: >Originator: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Organization: apache >Release: 1.3.0 >Environment: FreeBSD 2.2.6-R + Apache 1.3.0 (Installed from FreeBSD's ports) is my environment, but this seems to happen on other versions of Apache too. >Description: When an invalid URLs that doesn't exist such as http://server/index.html/index.html is requested, the server transfers document located at http://server/index.html instead of Not Found error. The images in the document are broken, because any request of that kind gives the file index.html in this case.
To the transfer log, those requests including the broken images are recorded as complete transfers, and nothing is recorded to the error log. >How-To-Repeat: This seems to happen with Apache's site too, as well as mine. Please try these below. http://www.apache.org/index.html/index.html http://www.apache.org/index.html/index.html/index.html/invalid_invalid http://www.exp.org/index.html/ /* they are written in Japanese */ http://www.exp.org/index.html/whatever/whatever >Fix: I haven't figured what's causing this yet. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: [In order for any reply to be added to the PR database, ] [you need to include <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> in the Cc line ] [and leave the subject line UNCHANGED.
