hi all... I found the below discussion in the archives... while Doug's suggestion helps fill in some of the missing uri info, I still am having trouble isolating $uri->user and $uri->password, and $uri->hostinfo in a PerlTransHandler... that is, given: http://foo:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I can't seem to get at the user/pass combo, either by parsing hostinfo myself or using the user() and password() methods. All hooks are enabled - is there something else I should be looking for? PerlTransHandler snippet: use Apache::URI; use strict; sub handler { my $r = shift; my $log = $r->server->log; my $uri = Apache::URI->parse($r); my $user = $uri->user; my $pass = $uri->password; my $hostinfo = $uri->hostinfo; $log->info("user: $user password: $pass hostinfo: $hostinfo"); } both $user and $pass are blank, while $hostinfo contains www.baz.com. Any ideas why user:pass are not part of the request object? --Geoff Subject: Re: Apache::URI Author: Doug MacEachern <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thu, 23 Sep 1999 12:49:07 -0700 (PDT) On Thu, 23 Sep 1999, Clinton Gormley wrote: > > For a URL like this : > https://www.domain.com:443/exec/cellar Apache only sees /exec/cellar in the uri, unless it's a proxy request. you can build the complete URI, see chapter 9, also on www.modperl.com: If the URI argument is omitted, the I<parse()> method will construct a fully qualified URI from B<$r> object, including the scheme, hostname, port, path and query string.

So it leaves out scheme, hostinfo and port. Why? Any ideas? Thanks Clint
