path_info works fine with Apache - this is a cf issue, if any. Did you try
scoping the variable just in case? CGI.PATH_INFO
To confirm your Apache's functionality, create a file in your cgi-bin with
the following contents: (adjust the path of the perl binary to suit your
system)
#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print $ENV{PATH_INFO};
Make it executable and readable by the user that you run Apache as, then
access it via http like this:
http://yourdomain.com/cgi-bin/scriptname/foo/bar
You'll find it will print /foo/bar, demonstrating that path_info is working
fine in Apache.
FYI, note that it omits the script name itself - this is the correct
behaviour of path_info when accessed via the actual CGI, as opposed to
accesing it via an embedded, non-cgi scripting language such as cfml or php,
in which case the filename is typically included in path_info
