    text
    copied!<p>I noticed an odd (to me) <code>mod_rewrite</code> thing happening. Fixing it is not important to me so much as figuring out what's going on. Basically, I have an svg file called <code>test.svg</code> in my document root, as well as an <code>index.php</code>. My expectation, based on my <code>.htaccess</code> file is that visiting <code>http://localhost/test.svg</code> would get me the <code>.svg</code> file (and it does), while visiting <code>http://localhost/test/action</code> would be rewritten to <code>index.php/test/action</code>. Instead, the latter is apparently rewritten to <code>test.svg/action</code>, as I receive the message </p> <blockquote> <p>The requested URL /test.svg/action was not found on this server.</p> </blockquote> <p>Here is my <code>.htaccess</code> file:</p> <pre><code># Turn on URL rewriting RewriteEngine On # Protect application and system files from being viewed # RewriteRule ^(application|modules|system) - [F,L] # Allow any files or directories that exist to be displayed directly RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d # Rewrite all other URLs to index.php/URL RewriteRule .* index.php/$0 [PT,L] </code></pre> <p>I am using a Apache 2.2.12 on Ubuntu (installed via <code>apt-get</code>). I think my setup is fairly standard, but I'm not sure exactly what directives or config files would be relevant. I am by no means a sysadmin of any kind, I just use this server to test and develop things locally.</p> <p>As I said, fixing this issue would be trivial, I just am often confounded by <code>mod_rewrite</code> and would like to understand what's going on here.</p>
