Bug#494768: sendfile bails out with error

The CIFS server is Solaris 10, Samba 3.0.28.  It is definitely serving 
up CIFS as I had to manually upgrade the CIFS module on some older 
(Linux) clients to deal with a deficiency in the pre 1.50 CIFS kernel 
module.  

I patch the Sun box regularly, and the thought had occurred to me that a 
Sun patch was to blame, but there was no major version changes around 
the time that the breakage occurred.  Looking at the bugfixes in each 
patch, nothing stood out that might indicate a change in the FS 
representation.

Apache 2.2.3-4+etch5 (apache2-mpm-worker) mod_rewrite BUG

[François Guerraz]

Package: apache2-mpm-worker
Version: 2.2.3-4+etch5
Severity: important

According to 
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_rewrite.html#rewriterule 
 :


"The Substitution of a rewrite rule is the string that replaces the 
original URL-path that was matched by Pattern. The Substitution may be a:

[...]
*file-system path*
   Designates the location on the file-system of the resource to be 
delivered to the client.

URL-path
   A DocumentRoot-relative path to the resource to be served. *Note 
that mod_rewrite tries to guess whether you have specified a file-system 
path or a URL-path by checking to see if the first segment of the path 
exists at the root of the file-system.* For example, if you specify a 
Substitution string of /www/file.html, then this will be treated as a 
URL-path unless a directory named www exists at the root or your 
file-system, in which case it will be treated as a file-system path. If 
you wish other URL-mapping directives (such as Alias) to be applied to 
the resulting URL-path, use the [PT] flag as described below.

[...]"

TEST CASE:
1. In apache2.conf, add the following section

  Options FollowSymLinks
  RewriteEngine On
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.gz [L,PT]

2. touch /bar.test.gz
3. Access http://localhost/bar.test 

ACTUAL RESULT:
You get an error page "The requested URL /bar.test.gz was 
not found on this server.", because the substitution gets interpreted as 
URL relative to DocumentRoot
For example, if the document root is "/var/www/example/" you'll find in 
the error log "File does not exist: /var/www/example/var"


EXPECTED:
The file /bar.test.gz should be served.

A similar bug has already be filed on Ubuntu's bugtracking by someone 
else here : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apache2/+bug/174282
I guess it is related but the bug has been closed "because it lacks the 
information we need to investigate the problem".


By advance, thanks.

François.
