http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16402 %{REQUEST_FILENAME} needs lookahead in order to contain local path instead of URI Summary: %{REQUEST_FILENAME} needs lookahead in order to contain local path instead of URI Product: Apache httpd-2.0 Version: 2.0.44 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: mod_rewrite AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm running Apache2 (2.0.43) and wanted to transparently send requests for PHP-processed files to an Apache1.3 instance, which runs PHP Accelerator (www.php-accelerator.co.uk). Naturally, I turned to mod_proxy and mod_rewrite. However, I (think I've) found a problem with either the docs or with mod_rewrite itself. Here's the ruleset I tried: RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} \.php$ RewriteRule ^/+(.*)$ http://otherhost.horde.net/$1 [P,NE,L] Turning on a RewriteLog showed that %{REQUEST_FILENAME} contained the URI of the request, not the full local path as stated in the mod_rewrite docs (http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mod_rewrite.html). However, I found that this ruleset works: RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{LA-U:REQUEST_FILENAME} \.php$ RewriteRule ^/+(.*)$ http://otherhost.horde.net/$1 [P,NE,L] In order to get the full local path in %{REQUEST_FILENAME}, you have to force mod_rewrite to do a look-ahead with %{LA-U:REQUEST_FILENAME}. The kicker is that the docs go on at length about the difference between REQUEST_URI and REQUEST_FILENAME. I found these variables to be identical unless you force mod_rewrite to look ahead for REQUEST_FILENAME. I posted to apache-users, but didn't get any response after a few days and this doesn't seem to be reported already. Is this a bug in the docs, mod_rewrite, or am I just blowing hot air? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
