[SOLVED] Query strings combined with CI urls => stopped working in PHP 5.3

[eluser]Nick De Decker[/eluser]
Hello,

I've been using CI 1.7.0 for development of my application.
I use CI url's everywhere, but for credit card authorization my controller is called like this.

http://<<myhostname>>/mycontroller/pay/ok?orderid=xxx&info=yyy .....

This doesn't work anymore on the customer's PHP 5.3 platform: I always get a 404: the page requested was not found (the CI page).

I upgraded to 1.7.2 but it still won't work.

Configuration is exactly the same, everything works except for this thing.
if I put a print_r($_REQUEST) on top of the index.php it does echo out the orderid and info variables, but it doesn't reach the mycontroller/pay.

I don't know enough of CI's flow to debug this. Any idea how to fix this ?

Whenever I put ?something at the end of the url it stops working.
Changing the config's enable querystring option doesn't help.

Thanks in advance.
Nick

Have you tried changing your query string value:

Code:

Enabling Query Strings

In some cases you might prefer to use query strings URLs:

index.php?c=products&m=view&id=345
CodeIgniter optionally supports this capability, which can be enabled in your application/config.php file. If you open your config file you'll see these items:

$config['enable_query_strings'] = FALSE;
$config['controller_trigger'] = 'c';
$config['function_trigger'] = 'm';
If you change "enable_query_strings" to TRUE this feature will become active. Your controllers and functions will then be accessible using the "trigger" words you've set to invoke your controllers and methods:

index.php?c=controller&m=method

Yes I did. But didn't work.

Calling this URI: /welcome/test/message?par1=test123&par2=test456
Works on CI 1.7.2 on my PHP5.2 installation.
But fails with CI 1.7.2 on PHP5.3.

I'm debugging right now and I'll keep you guys posted...

It wouldn't be calling the same url

Have you Try calling after changing your query strings?
index.php?c=welcome&m=test&message&part1;=test123&par2=test456

Hey,

I just found the problem.
In system/libraries/URI.php you got the _fetch_uri_string() function.
This tries to set the path using $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'];

Apparantly this doesn't exist on the client's server.
It is called $_SERVER['ORIG_PATH_INFO'] there

So I added a quick hack and now everything works again:

Code:

if(isset($_SERVER['ORIG_PATH_INFO'])) {
  $path = (isset($_SERVER['ORIG_PATH_INFO'])) ? $_SERVER['ORIG_PATH_INFO'] : @getenv('ORIG_PATH_INFO');
}

Don't know why that is but it works now.

Kind regards,
Nick
