Apparently, mod_rewrite doesn't convert "+" to spaces as it doeswith"%20".Your "problem" is home-made. mod_rewrite always works on the unescaped URI-path and you're explicitly specifying by using [NE] that no escaping on the final string should be done. So you end up with unescaped characters in this final string (not only spaces will be a problem).Just to make sure I got this - are you saying that if I remove [NE] from the RewriteRule, then mod_rewrite will NOT convert %20 in a requested URI to a space?
NE=no escape. mod_rewrite will not escape the output, meaning the substitution /bar?arg=P1\%3dTest would usually become /bar?arg=P1%253dTest (% is encoded into %25, and the NE-Flag prevents this).
Try this: http://simpy.com/user/otis/search/apache%20httpd That URL is handled by the following RewriteRule:RewriteRule ^/user/(.*)/search/(.*)$ /simpy/User.do?username=$1&q=$2 [P,env=URR:1]
What I also asked you about in the newsgroup alt.apache.configuration: Why are you using the proxy-Flag ([P]). There is nothing to proxy here, because no protocol + host is given. So why don't you use just
RewriteRule ^/user/(.*)/search/(.*)$ /simpy/User.do?username=$1&q=$2 [L,env=URR:1]
I tested both rules an apache 1.3.33, the one with the P-Flag returns a 400, without a 200.
This results in the following request under the hood: GET /simpy/User.do?username=otis&q=apache httpd HTTP/1.1" 400 369 "-" "-" ^^^^^^^^^^^^
Usually the original request should be logged, /user/otis/search/apache httpd, not the one you're rewriting to. I think it's caused by the P-Flag.
