I have been struggling with DirectoryIndex behavior and configuration
information from custom Perl directives for a while now. I've been
scanning the web and posting here and thanks for the previous responses.
I now have a solution that seems to work. I have extracted a minimal
set of tests that demonstrate the problem and my solution, which I have
attached as an archive (tar czf format).
I'm not completely happy with my solution, mostly because I'm not
completely sure why it works -- or perhaps more to the point why it is
necessary. I keep thinking that the mod_dir DirectoryIndex should just
work but of course that's bootless. Either it doesn't in this
situation or I don't understand something.
I'd be pleased to have a better solution. Or an explanation of why
this one works. I have tried to reduce the problem to the smallest
possible footprint to make it easy to review, for them what has the time
and interest.
Failing that, perhaps this IS a good solution and may benefit some other
poor soul.
it's probably just a misunderstanding on your part. I'll take a look at
it, but I have absolutely no idea what your tarball actually does - that
it contains more than one .conf file is too complex for me to wade through.
try using this as a basis instead:
http://people.apache.org/~geoff/Apache-Test-skeleton-mp2.tar.gz
if you can have 'make test' issue a failure that can be easily verified
I'm pretty sure I can explain what's going on.
