URL problem: even cannot log in to admin

eZ 3.2-3, PHP4 as CGI, safemode on but all permissions are ok.
.htaccess is on:

<FilesMatch ".">
order allow,deny
deny from all
</FilesMatch>
<FilesMatch "(index\.php|\.(gif|jpe?g|png|css|js|html))$">
order allow,deny
allow from all
</FilesMatch>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule !\.(gif|jpe?g|png|css|js|html)$ index.php
DirectoryIndex index.php

When i try to log in as administrator:
http://host/index.php/plain_admin

It shows me page with node id 2 (all debug modes are on):

[...]
Debug: Fetching node <kernel-content-view>
2
[...]

I tried all the url's like
http://host/index.php/blahblahblah
http://host/index.php/any1_help_me

and so on but CMS always shows me page with node 2, i mean the starting page "eZ publish - plain design Root folder".

What is the problem? Apache configuration, something with php.ini, something wrong with eZ's .ini files?

Help me please, i'm stuck!

Sorry, I may be missing something here but isn't your rewrite rule rewriting everything to be on the end of index.php anyway?

i.e. by typing http://host/index.php/blahblahblah you're effectively writing http://host/index.phpindex.php/blahblahblah? Have you tried without the index.php in your url?

Regards,

James

It seems to me no :-(

http://host/plain_admin/
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /plain_admin/ on this server.

It gotta be something with Apache config, but I really don't know, what is not correct. File ".htaccess" from package..

Well, I tried to insert
echo '<pre>'; print_r($_SERVER); echo '</pre>';
in "index.php", and I got:

---
[REDIRECT_STATUS] => 200
[REDIRECT_URL] => /index.php/plain_admin/
[SCRIPT_FILENAME] => /[pathname censored]/index.php
[SERVER_SOFTWARE] => Apache/1.3.28 (Unix) mod_accounting/0.5 mod_ssl/2.8.15 OpenSSL/0.9.7c mod_deflate/1.0.19
[REQUEST_METHOD] => GET
[QUERY_STRING] =>
[REQUEST_URI] => /index.php/plain_admin/
[SCRIPT_NAME] => /index.php
[PATH_INFO] => /plain_admin/
[ORIG_PATH_INFO] => /index.php/plain_admin/
[PHP_SELF] => /index.php
---

So, I think, RewriteRule is OK, but eZ still shows node 2.. :-(

Yeah, I think you're right, I just tried putting index.php into my location bar like you and it still worked (I also use virtual hosting).

If I were you, (based on the info you've given me) I'd try and rewrite my virtualhost section in my http conf file. Comment out your old virtualhost rules (including filesmatch) and try something like:

NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName mydomain.com:80
ServerAlias www.mydomain.com

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule !\.(gif|css|jpg|png|jar|js|html)$ /index.php

DocumentRoot /var/www/ezpublish
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

(and modify for your setup obviously)

If it works then try building on it your old rules until something stops working. If that doesn't work... well I'm sure someone else with a better idea than me can help out... ;)

I've tried. My .htaccess:

--
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule !\.(gif|jpe?g|png|css|js|html)$ index.php
--

Still nothing, fetching node 2..

Hi,

I'm short of knowledge on this, but I had experienced the same problem a week ago, there is a patch for EZP on PHP-CGI setup
at http://www.ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/forum/install_configuration/my_final_patch_for_phpcgi

I have applied with success, but now I have another issue regarding the URL format and the performance of the installation

Hope this help
