http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23460 mod_rewrite seems to use all lowercase URLs under Windows ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-10-12 21:20 ------- Now I'm sure it's not a config problem. The problem also appears on Apache v1.3.28. I would try to make clear the problem. Test URL: http://www.site.com/Computers/Printers/Cables/index.html Using following rewrite rule I would like to use some part of the URL as input into a script: RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^(/.*)/index.html$ /script.cgi?cat=$1 The problem is, that $1 will be not "Computers/Printers/Cables", but "computers/Printers/Cables". The script input needs the category name in correct case, doesn't matter if we use Unix or Windows. But in rewrite_log.txt appears: (3) [per-dir z:/dir/] add path-info postfix: z:/dir/computers -> z:/dir/computers/Printers/Cables/index.html (3) [per-dir z:/dir/] strip per-dir prefix: z:/dir/computers/Printers/Cables/index.html -> computers/Printers/Cables/index.html (3) [per-dir z:/dir/] applying pattern '^(.*)/index.html$' to uri 'computers/Printers/Cables/index.html' (2) [per-dir z:/dir/] rewrite computers/Printers/Cables/index.html -> /script.cgi?&cat=computers/Printers/Cables (3) split uri=/script.cgi?&cat=computers/Printers/Cables -> uri=/script.cgi, args=&cat=computers/Printers/Cables (1) [per-dir z:/dir/] internal redirect with /script.cgi [INTERNAL REDIRECT] (3) [per-dir z:/dir/] strip per-dir prefix: z:/dir/script.cgi -> script.cgi (3) [per-dir z:/dir/] applying pattern '^(.*)/index.html$' to uri 'script.cgi' (1) [per-dir z:/dir/] pass through z:/dir/script.cgi Is that normal? "computers/Printers/Cables" is inserted with $1, and not the expected "Computers/Printers/Cables". I know, it may be related to the Windows's case insensitive filesystem, however the rewrite feature is wrong that way. Script inputs are case sensitive on all systems, so mod_rewrite should be also case sensitive. Windows understands both lowercase and uppercase paths, so paths with correct case from mod_rewrite are treated well at system level. I think the bug is at "add path-info postfix" action, since the base dir is not "z:/dir" as would expected, but "z:/dir/computers".
