Is there any chance that the SetEnvIfNoCase directive is not being
satisfied due to the mod_rewrite rules that I'm using?
All requests are routed through a single file, /index.php, via the
following mod_rewrite directives:
# Rewrite URIs of the form 'index.php?q=x'
# (except for real files/directories):
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]
So, a request for the URL
https://localhost/public/download/My%20Installer.zip will be rewritten
to https://localhost/public/index.php?q=/download/My%20Installer.zip .
Curiously, if I examine Apache's environment variables after the rewrite
has been performed, the "REQUEST_URI" value is
"/public/download/My%20Installer.zip".
Given the above, shouldn't the SetEnvIfNoCase directive return a match?
Thanks for any help!
