Summary: Short URLs not working on IIS for articles with
special characters
Product: MediaWiki

Coying here the problem reported in Support Desk (in URL):
----
I've just upgraded from 1.19 to 1.23 and since that the short URLs only works,
if the title contains ASCII characters only. If there are czech national
characters in the title, the page is not found, because the national characters
are wrongly encoded. I can still open the pages using short URLs, when I enter
the short URL directly into the navigation bar. So redirection in my IIS7 seems
to work normally. If I disable the short URLs by $wgArticlePath, it works
IIS7 logs:
'''1) short Url disabled'''
> GET /w/index.php title=Hlavn%C3%AD_strana 80 ***** 304 0 0 281
'''2) short Url enabled'''
> GET /w/index.php title=HlavnĂ_strana 80 ***** 404 0 0 140
From the logs it is clear, that if short URL is disabled the title is escaped,
but if short URL is enabled, it is not escaped (and probably in wrong
encoding).
I found something related in the HISTORY file:
> `$wgUsePathInfo = true;` is no longer needed to make $wgArticlePath work
> on servers using like nginx, lighttpd, and apache over fastcgi. MediaWiki
> now always extracts path info from REQUEST_URI if it's available.
Which corresponds to this:
_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] = "/HlavnĂ_strana"
_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"] = "title=Hlavn%C3%AD_strana"
It seems, that while the article name is correct in _SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]
variable, the _SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] contains it invalid encoded.
