Hi
 php cgi module assumes that if redirect_uri is set , the request must
be from apache and throws away the script_name value and assigns
path_translated value to script name. 
 
 this is because, in cgi environment, apache sets the SCRIPT_NAME to
the location of the php-cgi binary and keeping the PATH_INFO variable to
point to the requested php script. this is very unique only to apache. 

 this crude test condition for apache is affecting sun web server
executing in fastcgi mode where in it looses the script_name value and
ends up returning with 'no input file specified'. 

 this happens only for sun web server and not for lighttpd because
lighttpd does not set redirect_uri when requested for index.php. 

 based on this analysis , earlier, i provided a patch to address this
issue . however, i overlooked the obvious and ended up breaking apache
in cgi mode. 

 because of this, a separate bug : http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=47149
has been filed and my suggested patch was reverted.

my sincere apology on providing this obviously broken patch and wasting
some of your time.

 pl. find attached a below patch that should do the right thing.
what we want to do is 

a) compare whether the script path is different from path translated
since we know that apache by default sets the script name to point to
the location of cgi binary and not the requested uri

Description:
------------
currently, php cgi sapi code checks for redirect url and
env_path_translated to determine if the request is coming from apache
web server and accordingly modifies the CGI environment variables so
that server can continue processing. 

however, this check is insufficient considering that any web server
exporting SCRIPT_FILENAME and REDIRECT_URL with some value will be hit
by the apache specific processing.



Reproduce code:
---------------
          if (env_path_translated != NULL && env_redirect_url != NULL)
{
                /*
                   pretty much apache specific.  If we have a
redirect_url
                   then our script_filename and script_name point to
the
                   php executable
                */
                script_path_translated = env_path_translated;
                /* we correct SCRIPT_NAME now in case we don't have
PATH_INFO */
                env_script_name = env_redirect_url;
            }



Expected result:
----------------
server should continue processing

Actual result:
--------------
no input file is returned
