hi all,
this is probably a bone headed question, but two of us here have been
beating our heads against it for a day and a half now, so i figure i
might as well ask (since i couldn't find an answer in the docs or the
archives).
we're running apache 1.3.12 and mod_perl (EVERYTHING=1) 1.3.24, and we
have written a little handler to do some simple find and replace in
html files before returning them. it works fine when given and explicit
url (http://foo.com/bar/index.html) but on a request to http://foo.com/bar/
or http://foo.com/bar, the filename that $r->filename() gives is
/base/dir/bar/ and /base/dir/bar respectively. shouldn't the translation
handler have kicked in already and changed this for me?
i would have given up and had the module do its own directory to file
translation, but it seems that there is no way to access the DirectoryIndex
setting from within the module. perhaps tied up in this is the fact the
$r->dir_config( ) returns a reference to an empty array.
short snippet of http.conf
<IfModule mod_dir.c>
DirectoryIndex index.php index.phtml index.html index.taf
</IfModule>
PerlModule NetCloak::Processor
<Location />
AddHandler perl-script .html .htm
PerlHandler NetCloak::Processor
PerlSendHeader On
</Location>
any ideas? thank you
