[cgiwrap-users] RE: #!/usr/bin/php

[Neulinger, N. <nn...@um...>]

Re PATH_TRANSLATED... I guess i'm just not sure what it's "supposed" to
be.

You're saying that the script is physically located at:

	/var/chroot/_nossh/k060881/htdocs/test.php

and that path translated is set to this by cgiwrap:

	/var/chroot/_nossh/k060881/htdocs

and is originally this by apache:

	/var/chroot/_nossh/k060881/htdocs/phpmagic.de/k060881/test.php

I'm willing to change what cgiwrap does, so long as someone can provide
me a pointer to a reference that says exactly what PATH_TRANSLATED is
supposed to do, assuming that cgiwrap has the necessary information at
the time.

It does clearly look like it's bogus from cgiwrap.

I see this definition on one site:

	Definition:  A virtual-to-physical mapping of PATH_INFO, which
can be used directly as an absolute path or file, available as an
environment variable for CGI scripts.=20

I've also seen this on oreilly's site:

	Besides passing query information to a CGI script, you can also
pass additional data, known as extra path information, as part of the
URL. The extra path information depends on the server knowing where the
name of the program ends, and understanding that anything
following the program name is "extra." Here is how you would call a
script with extra path information:

	http://some.machine/cgi-bin/display.pl/cgi/cgi_doc.txt

	Since the server knows that display.pl is the name of the
program, the string "/cgi/cgi_doc.txt" is stored in the environment
variable PATH_INFO. Meanwhile, the variable PATH_TRANSLATED is also set,
which maps the information stored in PATH_INFO to the 	document root
directory (e.g., /usr/local/etc/httpd/ public/cgi/cgi-doc.txt).=20




That one makes it look like it should be DOCUMENT_ROOT + PATH_INFO. I
can do that if those vars are passed. (I believe they are).

But is that what y'all think that cgiwrap should set it do?

Alternatively, I can just leave it alone, and merely strip out the
"/user/" part?
