Comment preview broken, url incorrect

janw · 2007-07-05 06:54:36

My preview is not working anymore.
It points to: http://www.domain.nl/id=78#cpreview instead of http://www.domain.nl/index.php?id=78#cpreview

How can I change the settings so it will point to “http://www.domain.nl/index.php?id=78#cpreview”

Thanks

Try removing your htaccess file.

Can you post your diagostics and a link to the page in question?

janw · 2007-07-06 06:32:36

It’s on a window-server so no htaccess :-)
Maybe the ISAP rewrite?

Anyway here’s the diagnosis:

anyone?

Can you put this in the template for a page that contains a comment form:

<txp:php>global $pretext; dmp($pretext);</txp:php>

That should show some debug information when visiting the page. I suspect the request_uri is not set correctly.

[id] => 78 [s] => blog © => [q] => [pg] => [p] => [month] => [author] => [request_uri] => id=78 [qs] => id=78 [subpath] => \/ [req] => [status] => 200 [page] => blog [next_id] => [next_title] => [next_utitle] => [next_posted] => [prev_id] => 77 [prev_posted] => 1178008073 [id_keywords] => [path_from_root] => / [pfr] => / [path_to_site] => D:\www\sprt.nl\www [permlink_mode] => messy [secondpass] =>

Strange thing is that if I show the first 5 items (only the excerpts) and click on “read more” the link is correct:

http://www.sprt.nl/index.php?id=78#commentaar

so with the “index.php?”-part

I can’t reproduce the ‘read more’ behaviour you describe (I get broken URLs in the comment form, no matter how I visit them). Can you provide an exact click path that takes me to that page?

And instead of the code I gave before, can you post the results of this (and the URL of the page you’re visiting at that point). Make sure that it’s a page with a form that has an incorrect URL:

<txp:php>dmp($_SERVER);</txp:php>

Because the problem is in how ‘request_uri’ is detected. Probably yet another IIS issue. Looking at the TXP code, there are already two workarounds in place to make it work on IIS, but perhaps a third is needed.

(Edit: updated to display output more clearly. -Mary)

It has to be IIS because it did work. I remember asking them for ISAPI rewrite but they didn’t do this. Now they’ve got this.
I just noticed this failure.

The read more behavior is when you click on “blog” first not directly on a title of an article.

The interesting parts are:

    [HTTP_X_REWRITE_URL] => /index.php?id=78
    [QUERY_STRING] => id=78
    [ORIG_PATH_INFO] => /index.php
    [ORIG_SCRIPT_NAME] => /index.php
    [PHP_SELF] => /index.php
    [SCRIPT_NAME] => /index.php
    [argv] => Array
        (
            [0] => id=78
        )

From what I’ve read, I’d say that ASAPI rewrite is active, otherwise I can’t explain the existence of HTTP_X_REWRITE_URL

I have to ask, did you really do this on a page that has a broken URL?
Because that would be very strange. You see, the SCRIPT_NAME is defined and so is the QUERY_STRING. That should be trigger TXP to build a request_uri using those two variables. Instead it appears to use argv and that makes no sense.

You can see it here:
http://www.sprt.nl/index.php?id=78

The source says: <form method=“post” action=“id=78#cpreview” id=“txpCommentInputForm”> instead of <form method=“post” action=“index.php?id=78#cpreview” id=“txpCommentInputForm”>

Actually, this problem makes perfect sense: you’re still using v.4.0.3, and the IIS checks have changed since then:

Note that the argv thing still appears to be broken.

Upgrading may solve the problem altogether for you. You’ll want to do that anyway, there are several vital security fixes since 4.0.3 as well.
