Write working automated path determiner #18

Closed radex closed 13 years ago

radex commented 13 years ago

Algorithm determining whether RewriteEngine works properely (which is necessary to know whether paths without index.php/ can be used) I wrote, fails on some servers, even crashing them. For now semi-automated checking will be used (user have to click a link for himself in order to check if it works, and select checkbox)

Done.

I came up with another idea - instead of requesting php file from php file, redirect to special 'urltest' file (with URL to redirect back to, as parameter). This file actually exist, but RewriteEngine alters request, appending '&works'. If it was appended, urltest file redirects back with '&works', and Installer can determine whether RewriteEngine works.
