ID: 20453 Updated by: philip@php.net Reported By: clewis@myfonts.com -Status: Analyzed +Status: Assigned Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: RedHat 7.3 PHP Version: 4.2.3 -Assigned To: +Assigned To: philip New Comment: Am working on this. There are several REDIRECT_* predefined vars to use. See also: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/custom-error.html Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-16 01:51:34] sniper@php.net This is how Apache behaves. It doesn't set QUERY_STRING when page is not found as it's redirected. You can test this with putting phpinfo() into your 404 script. Search for "REDIRECT_QUERY_STRING" in the "Apache Environment" section.. (it's also in _SERVER var) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-15 18:20:58] clewis@myfonts.com $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] is empty in our 404-handling script, which is displayed when the user's URL is not found. The query string appears correctly in REQUEST_URI, so the data is there, it's just not getting into the QUERY_STRING var. Here are some dumps of the $_SERVER array, for an existing script, and a bad URL that displays the 404 script: (user: bugzilla; Pass: bugzz) http://clewis.myfonts.com/exists.php?stuff=things http://clewis.myfonts.com/notexist.php?stuff=things Using Apache 1.3.26, PHP 4.2.3, configured with './configure' '--prefix=/usr/local' '--with-apache=../apache' '--with-mysql=/usr/local' '--with-curl' '--with-gd' '--with-mcrypt' '--with-pspell' '--enable-apc' '--with-zlib' -Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=20453&edit=1
