Re: [users@httpd] 2.0.48 : Multiviews not honoured

[Michel Jouvin <jouvin@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the pointer to iehttpheaders. I installed it and ran IE6 against 
Apache 2.0.47 and 2.0.48. I found the following diff.

IE request is :

GET / HTTP/1.1
Accept: image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, 
application/vnd.ms-powerpoint, application/vnd.ms-excel, 
application/msword, */*
Accept-Language: fr
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 
1.0.3705)
Host: www.lal.in2p3.fr
Connection: Keep-Alive


2.0.47 response is :

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Mon, 03 Nov 2003 12:06:17 GMT
Server: Apache/2.0.47 (Unix) DAV/2 mod_ssl/2.0.47 OpenSSL/0.9.7b PHP/4.3.2
Content-Location: index.html.fr
Vary: negotiate,accept-language
TCN: choice
Last-Modified: Mon, 06 Oct 2003 18:37:17 GMT
ETag: "e7ef-3824-3c90900e49140"
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Content-Length: 14372
Keep-Alive: timeout=15, max=100
Connection: Keep-Alive
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Language: fr


2.0.48 response is :

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Mon, 03 Nov 2003 12:01:35 GMT
Server: Apache/2.0.48 (Unix) DAV/2 mod_ssl/2.0.48 OpenSSL/0.9.7b PHP/4.3.2
Content-Location: index.html.fr.svg
Vary: negotiate,accept,accept-language
TCN: choice
Last-Modified: Tue, 09 Sep 2003 17:56:19 GMT
ETag: "17f0a-3620-3c6e948ab56c0"
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Content-Length: 13856
Keep-Alive: timeout=15, max=100
Connection: Keep-Alive
Content-Type: image/svg+xml
Content-Language: fr


Thus, there are 2 differences :

- Vary contains 'acceept' token in 2.0.48 which is not present in previous 
versions

- Content locacation returns a file that exists but is normally ignored by 
previous versions.

Thus why the file with ext .fr.svg is taken into account in 2.0.48 ?
