Unexpected PATHINFO behavior under SSL

Hi there,

This may be offtopic-ish but I'm hoping for some forbearance.
This has ruined a perfectly good day. :)

I have an application that gets it state information from PATHINFO.
Runs fine without SSL but I setup a test env using Raven SSL then
PATHINFO, and SCRIPT_NAME, start returning different data.

For instance the program handler would be called /foo and I'll add /bar to
the path to trigger a behavior. Under SSL, the SCRIPT_NAME is set to /foo/bar
and PATHINFO is empty. Without SSL, SCRIPT_NAME is /foo and PATHINFO is bar.

This is Apache 1.3.12, mod_perl 1.24, Raven 1.5.3 on RH Linux 6.2. mod_perl
was built with EVERYTHING=1. All modules were statically built. Perl 5.00503.

Ideas?

TIA,

Jeff

Nope. It's a content handler.

Both.

I prefer to use mod_ssl too but I have other folks that manage
certificates and such at work.

Yep.

Thanks,

is this under Apache::Registry?

Does it happen on with SSL connections or with both SSL connections
and normal connections when Raven SSL is loaded/compiled in? If the
latter then I would suspect that Raven SSL is patching something
funny into Apache. (I've never tried Raven SSL. I use mod_ssl for
SSL in Apache).

In any case, you might have more luck with Covalent's support.
