Trailing /-character not ignored in the URL with ordinary files

           Summary: Trailing /-character not ignored in the URL with
                    ordinary files
           Product: Apache httpd-1.3
           Version: 1.3.28
          Platform: Sun
        OS/Version: Solaris
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: liinu@uta.fi


It seems that for some yet unknown reason trailing /-character is not stripped or
ignored in the URL.

eg. URL http://server/directory/foo.html/bar will get you foo.html even if
foo.html is just an ordinary file and not a directory. Unfortunately I do not
know why this works with some files but with others. Usually one gets the error
message "404 not found and in the errorlog "File does not exist:
/ht_docs/foo.html/bar". But in some cases you get the foo.html file, and in
accesslog there is message similar to this one "GET
/other_directory/foo.html/bar HTTP/1.1" 200 1905 "-".

It does not matter which browser is used.
