little Patch for puretec / schlund -servers

Wednesday 21 May 2003 2:34:01 pm

Hi,

we tried to install ez3 on a managed-webserver at Schlund+Partner (IMHO the best provider) which uses php-cgi.

Urls like this:
index.php/standard/content....
generates 404 Errors because of security settings.

I modified ezsys.php (diff is below) and now ez3 generates
index.php?/standard/content/ - links

NOTE:
standard-rewriterules will not work with this patch. it's only for that purpose and I suggest that you disable rewriting. i mean standard-rewriterules since i didn't experiment with it that much.
There is still a problem with URL-encoded PHPSession-ID's

Hi,

I don't know, if the patch is an general php-cgi-solution, it works for me :)
Maybe the ez-team could point out cavehats, i'm not aware of.
UPDATE:
I noticed one cavehat!:
<form method="get".. does not work
U need to change the line to
<form method="post"

i extended the preceding patch. Now it works with PHPSESSID encoded in the url.
Apply the first patch before you apply this one.
This patch should be more general though, e.g. extract the path element dispite _any_ extra arguments.

bye
