Using Rails 1.2 and FastCGI on Apache 1.3.
I''m trying to figure out why a request like this isn''t making
it into
my Rails app: http://www.domain.com/users/show/a.b.c
The user id is "a.b.c", and because of the periods in there, Apache is
giving this error:
File not found
Change this error message for pages not found in public/404.html
If the :id does not have the periods, it''s fine, and the page is
served by Rails.
I''m not sure where the problem lies... But, here''s my
.htaccess
RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA]
RewriteRule ^([^.]+)$ $1.html [QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]
Is this an Apache config thing, or more of a Rails routing thing?

The ''.'' is a param separator. So a, b and c are parsed as separate variables in the url. This allows you to do stuff like: /users/bob #=> :id => ''bob'' /users/bob.xml #=> :id => ''bob'', :format => ''xml'' or /blog #=> :action => ''index'' /blog.rss #=> :action => ''index'', :format => ''rss'' To view the same data in different formats. To prevent it try this in your routes: map.foo ''/users/:id'', :requirements => {:id => /.*/} -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
