Bug #61286 [Com]: If the trailing path that follows a script contains a dot PATH_INFO is not set

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61286&edit=1 ID: 61286 Comment by: tamas at bartatamas dot hu Reported by: galacticvoid+php at gmail dot com Summary: If the trailing path that follows a script contains a dot PATH_INFO is not set Status: Wont fix Type: Bug Package: Built-in web server Operating System: OSX PHP Version: 5.4.0 Assigned To: laruence Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: I've been debugging FuelPHP's router because of this bug. Does it really make sense? Why would a dot mean a static file request? Also, if it does, why was the router fired at all? I don't really want to run Apache to make my app able to handle requests with a dot in the URI. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-03-07 05:58:29] laruence@php.net Built-in server will consider it as a static file request if there is a dot in the SCRIPT_NAME. so, it's kind of expect behavior. thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-03-05 16:52:21] galacticvoid+php at gmail dot com Sorry I was working on this for an hour and I left out the router part. Using router.php (The only file in __DIR__ is index.php): if (file_exists(__DIR__ . '/' . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'])) { return false; } else { include_once 'index.php'; } The results of $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] when calling http://localhost:8000/notset is: /notset. The results of $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] when calling http://localhost:8000/not.set is: PHP Notice: Undefined index: PATH_INFO. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-03-05 16:21:04] reeze dot xia at gmail dot com I can't reproduce it in OSX. Are you sure you are running 5.4.0 but not previous RC versions? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-03-05 13:28:27] galacticvoid+php at gmail dot com Description: ------------ If the trailing path that follows a script contains a dot the variable $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] is not set.
