[quote author="thurting" date="1194375288"]Also, after looking on Google it seems there is a problem with the SCRIPT_FILENAME variable when using CGI. You should check it out.[/quote]
I've seen vague references to this - both in the forums here and also on Google. The suggestion seems to be that for some reason the value of $SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'] doesn't point to the main CI index.php file. Or that somehow when running with PHP5 as cgi that it's value is changed in some unspecified way. A key question though is - why is it different as a result of a mod_rewrite internal direct compared with directly accessing a URL?
In any case the big difficulty with this is that the way the problem manifests is that it never actually runs CI's index.php So there's a bit of a problem in discovering what $SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'] is set to as the only way I can think of to find out is to add some code the the PHP file to log the value!!
Logically this might be a good line of enquiry. But in practice - how do I find out what it's set to? And if it's wrong how do I change it anyway?
Googling for further info has so far failed to address those questions
