[cfaussie] CF10 and redirect_url
Hi, I sent this on the weekend but I don't think it made it to the list - apologies if I am reposting unnecesarily... - Its 1am on Sunday morning and I have just backed out a CF10 upgrade and I am hoping to find some value in a wasted 4 hours... The reason I had to back out the upgrade was because I discovered that CF10 is not passing through the web server CGI variable on page redirection. I rely on the cgi.redirect_url variable as part of a system to support 'friendly' URLs and it has served very well for a number of years now. However CF10 is not passing the variables through. In fact I suspect that it is Tomcat that is the culprit given what I read here: https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/railo/6r5eFEPh8q4 https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#%21topic/railo/6r5eFEPh8q4 which is from 2009 and the common factor appears to be Tomcat. This post http://www.giancarlogomez.com/2012/06/you-are-not-going-crazy-cgipathinfo-is.html http://www.giancarlogomez.com/2012/06/you-are-not-going-crazy-cgipathinfo-is.html also talks about the same problem. Am I sure that it IS CF10/Tomcat causing the problem? Yes, absolutely, because I wrote my very first .php script which I substituted it for my .cfm page using Apache's errordocument directive and was able to dump the redirect_url variable without any problem. I had cause to suspect Apache as I had also upgraded to Apache2.2 as it appeared that CF10 would not run on Apache2.0, so I wanted to eliminate Apache as the cause of the problem. Having said that, I didn't succeed in getting CF8 to run on Apache2.2 so the test may not be definitive. So I'm hoping that Adobe will do something to remedy this PDQ but in case there are others out there battling with this problem, or have a solution(!), I thought a post to cfuassie might add some value to an otherwise wasted evening!

Hi Brett, Like Steve - I thought you were just posting an observation. Unfortunately I am not of much help either, sorry. I don't use that specific CGI variable. Good luck though - and keep us informed, of course, if you work it out! Gavin.
