Hello,
I'm using mod_rewrite with httpd 1.3.34 and am having some difficulties
with it when the URL that is getting rewritten has spaces (encoded as
%20) in it. Example:
http://simpy.com/user/otis/search/foo%20bar
The error I get is "400 bad Request":
Bad Request
Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.
The request line contained invalid characters following the protocol
string.
My rewrite rule looks like this:
RewriteRule ^/user/(.*)/search/(.*)$
/simpy/User.do?username=$1&q=$2 [P,NE]
And what I see in my access_log is:
... "GET /simpy/User.do?username=otis&q=foo bar HTTP/1.1" ...
^^^^^^^
The problem seems to be that space in "foo bar".
I believe I need to tell httpd/rewrite module _not_ to decode the %20
from the original URL.
Does anyone know how I could configure mod_rewrite so that the %20 gets
preserved instead of converted to spaces?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I just discovered this problem
on Simpy.com production site.
Thanks,
Otis
