Can someone look/repair/propose for 24? You beat me to it. If we think that the merging/inheritance of RewriteBase by default is wrong, we should also backport your RewriteOption MergeBase (r1418954) and the tiny fix for it you just now added to the 2.4 STATUS to 2.2 as well? At least we have PR 53963 open about the new merge behavior in 2.2.23. I guess I will add a backport suggestion to the 2.2.x STATUS. Regards, Rainer

Yes I agree, that original report actually has no relief queued up in 2.2.24. The reporter contacted me off-list and was running a personal build with the trunk change in 2.2 and realized it was broken.

If not, we should just move ahead and then can consider any improved behavior in 2.2.x. There are no changes to mod_rewrite in 2.2.x since 2.2.23 was tagged.

There are no changes to mod_rewrite in 2.2.x since 2.2.23 was tagged. 2.2.23 has _a_ rewritebase regression reported a number of places. My recent fire drill was a regression in the fix for that original regression. I'd like it in, but appreciate tough spot as RM -- your call.

The regression in 2.2.23 is that RewriteBase started to get merged in 2.2.23. It wasn't before. This seems to have broken certain setups. PR 53963. Eric has provided a RewriteOptions MergeBase which is off by default (no more merging) and allows to switch the bahvior on if wanted. The first impl of that had a bug, which is why we had a last minute change to it today. Regards, Rainer

Two more data points for 2.2: - the merging of RewriteBase was a side effect of *) mod_rewrite: Fix the RewriteEngine directive to work within a location. Previously, once RewriteEngine was switched on globally, it was impossible to switch off. - the commit was r1375113 Regards, Rainer

I would rather not race through this without one more folk to test out this change, needs not be a committer, I just added a beg on PR 53963 for review (there seem to be three watchers right now). I'll tag and roll an 1.25 hrs from now so you are welcome to do the backport honors Rainer... then hopefully nobody raises the red flag before I lay down that tag.

I committed it now with a slightly clarified docs section about MergeBase. The OP in the PR has responded positively although I think he might have tested the previous, broken version. One would only notice the difference if one would actually set a RewriteBase in a dir and also in a sub dir. The original problem was I think just having one set in a dir and not wanting it inherited in the sub dirs. So in this case the broken fix would have kind of worked as well. Will hang around for another 1-2 hours before it's getting late here. Rainer
