Rich Bowen <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Resolution|--- |WONTFIX Status|NEEDINFO |RESOLVED --- Comment #3 from Rich Bowen <[email protected]> --- On further review, the documentation is correct here. It's not an inconsistency, rather, it's describing the fact that mod_rewrite behaves differently in different contexts. I gave some thought to calling this "The input path" or similar. The difficulty, as described by the flowchart diagram in the https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/rewrite/tech.html document, is that there is not one "input path". Rather, there is a string that can be updated multiple times (or once, or not at all) as it passes through multiple rewriting phases, or multiple rules. There's just whatever state it's in at any given moment. I worry that calling it "input path" suggests that it's a single value, rather than one point in a process. The original URL-path becomes a modified URL path (or, sometimes it doesn't) as it flows through the process. See https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/rewrite/tech.html#InternalRuleset for the diagram referenced. The only fixed point is "The Request" (ie, the original URL-path) and after that it's all in flux. I am inclined to close this as WONTFIX because the doc is correct. Willing to reconsider if someone has specific rephrasings. Meanwhile, I'm conintuing to go through the entire /rewrite section of the doc looking for possible improvements. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
