#543 With Fedora Core 5, phpwiki 1.3.12p2 ignores PATH_INFO

[Alain Knaff]

With Fedora Core 5, phpwiki 1.3.12p2 ignores both
PATH_INFO and pagename.
This makes it impossible to browse any wikipage
except the front page.

N.B. I do have AcceptPathInfo on for the wiki
directory in my Apache config (and also once again
globally, for good measure)

Moreover the if (@is_dir(SCRIPT_FILENAME) or
realpath(SCRIPT_FILENAME) == realpath(FILE
)) in index.php does not seem to work, I had to
uncomment that line, or otherwise I would get an
empty page, even for the homepage.

Adding the following two lines

    elseif (!empty($_SERVER))
        $vars = &$_SERVER;

after

function get($key) {
    if (!empty($GLOBALS['HTTP_SERVER_VARS']))
        $vars = &$GLOBALS['HTTP_SERVER_VARS'];

in lib/Request.php seems to fix the issue.

Now I can navigate my wiki again, view Page History, etc.
However, unfortunately Edit still doesn't work.

Ok, so Editing can be fixed by disabling the EDIT_TOOLBAR
in config.ini

Ehm, sorry to mention it, but the hack doesn't fix a
thing... problem is still present after modifying the
Request.php file so can only view the HomePage.

A fix would be nice :)

In addition to the fix described, you need to put

AcceptPathInfo on

into your Apache configuration, in a place where it applies
to the directory where your wiki is installed.

The AcceptPathInfo instructs apache to export the relevant
information, whereas the Request.php modification enables
phpwiki to correctly import the info. Both changes are needed.

Thanks for the observation.
Strange register_long_arrays issue.
Will be tested and fixed asap.

The fix you mention should not be necessary.
lib/prepend.php:33
foreach
(array('SERVER','REQUEST','GET','POST','SESSION','ENV','COOKIE')
as $k) {
if (!isset($GLOBALS['HTTP_'.$k.'_VARS']) and
isset($GLOBALS['_'.$k]))
$GLOBALS['HTTP_'.$k.'_VARS'] =& $GLOBALS['_'.$k];
}
sets all long vars.

I am having the same issue in Red Hat RHEL4
using phpwiki-1.3.12p3

Getting a blank page upon startup, which is
fixed by commenting this line in index.php

if (@is_dir(SCRIPT_FILENAME) or
realpath(SCRIPT_FILENAME) == realpath(FILE
)) in index.php

Even once I do that, all my links and images
are not working (still troubleshooting).

I get a blank page

I'll have a redhat machine next week and will test it there.
