$c->req->base with mod_proxy_fcgi? ( was: RE: [Catalyst] $C -> uri_for containing current path in catalyst 5.90010 )

[stevep at majestic12.co.uk]

Hi David,

Thanks for testing that.

I have retested, using the code you provided in a fresh controller, and the problem persists. We suspect it may have something to do with the deployment rather than just catalyst, however - as this is the first time the application has been deployed on mod_proxy_fcgi I suspect it may be a deployment configuration, rather than core issue.

I notice that $c ->req -> base on 5.90010 returns the full URL requested, rather than just "scheme://domain:port/".

I noticed on the docs page for mod_proxy_fcgi, some references to PATH_INFO - http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_proxy_fcgi.htm - thus re-enforcing my suspicions of a config issue. Given the lack of relevant documentation I could find wrt catalyst with mod_proxy_fcgi we may just slip back to our previous deployment configuration and see if that resolves the issue.

Steve
