[V56_UniServer_USB_1.0 bug with PAC?]

Sorry for the mistake the correct line is:

$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]="";

the other produces some warnings and is better not to be used.

J!

 

PS:always glad to help

[V56_UniServer_USB_1.0 bug with PAC?]

I found a quick solution so that I can keep on my job!

 

I inserted the following line:

$GLOBALS[_SERVER][REQUEST_URI]="";

into index.php and administrator\index.php

 

Everything works fine!

 

Keep on the good work!

A few steps down....

 

I made this simple script:

<?php
echo "<pre>";
print_r ($GLOBALS);
echo "</pre>";
?>

and I found difference

into [_SERVER] and [HTTP_SERVER_VARS]

Values into [REQUEST_URI] are different.

Using my_hosts.pac into [REQUEST_URI] is the full url while using widows hosts only the script name.

 

Keep on

I do admit, this is driving me nuts.

Not sure where or what the failure mode is.

Relative links works.

Absolute links seem to have that extra http

 

Its not isolated to a particular application.

It is reproducible on different browsers.

Seems not to be an Apache issue.

 

Ya! That means I will keep looking at this issue.

 

Just wondering if any other users have any ideas?

 

All the best

After all this research I made it seems to be a firefox bug. There's must be something sending when requesting from Apache using the pac hosts. Do you think we can get help from firefox team?

 

Thanks once again

I like to reproduce a problem! Hence this is my set-up:

XP-Home

 

1 Extracted UniServer5_6b.exe

2 Ran Server to check it works

3 Installed V56_UniServer_USB_1.0.exe

4 Created Virtual host jm.com in folder UniServer\www\joomlatest (Using Apanel)

5 Closed server

6 Extracted plugin V55_Joomla_1_5_15a.exe (note this was placed in folder UniServer)

7 Moved folder joomla contained in www to folder UniServer\www\joomlatest

8 Ran servers and typed in http://jm.com/joomla/

9 Checked links no issues found until I clicked the home link.

 

Yep you do get a double http://

Two hours later and I have still not found the cause.

 

All the best

This is checked on Windows 7 and Windows XP

 

Here is what I did.

1 Extracted UniServer5_6b.exe

2 Ran Server to check it works

3 Installed V56_UniServer_USB_1.0.exe

4 I Create w: letter using subst like the old good days for the uniserver folder

5 Created Virtual joomlatest in folder w:\www\joomlatest (Using Apanel)

6 Created a db with phpmyadmin and I installed latest joomla following the proposed position

7 After installation finished I typed http://joomlatest site appears ok but the home link is http://joomlatesthttp/

8 edit manually hosts inserting joomlatest 127.0.0.1

9 remove option from firefox using my_hosts.pac (using default windows hosts)

10 Everything is fine.

11 Changing back to using my-hosts.pac

12 Problem is back

 

alternately

I go to the administrator panel. (http://testjoomla/administrator/)

make an error login then login ok. The url is: http://testjoomlahttp/administrator/index.php

and the output window says:

 

Not Found

 

The requested URL /administrator/index.php was not found on this server.

 

Further further more (after hours...)

Into my normal firefox installation i changed to use Automatic proxy configuration URL pointing to my_hosts.pac guess what THE SAME!

 

I tried Portable Firefox 3.5.8 no luck!

 

Thank you for your reply

I followed the instructions installing on USB. Everything seems ok. The problem is somewhere around the PAC file. I installed joomla into a virtual host the root folder is accessed normally but some links are messed up. for ex. a link http://testjoomla/ is converted to http://testjoomlahttp/ . An http/ is added to the end of the file. If I remove the decleration from pac\my_hosts.pac and insert it into windows hosts file then everything works fine. The problem is at work that I can't modify hosts. I'm not sure if this is a problem of portable firefox.

 

any Ideas suggestions?

 

Thank anyway!
