Lighttpd url rewrite removes querystring variables - url-rewriting

I am rewriting a URL in Lighttpd using
url.rewrite-once = (
"^/(.*)\.(.+)$" => "$0",
"^/(.+/?)\??$" => "/index.php?q=$1"
)
So that all urls are passed to index.php as variable q. However when I visit http://mydomain.com/account/edit?user=5 my script at index.php gets
q=account/edit?user=5
on apache I would get all variables i.e.
q=account/edit AND
user=5
How can I preserve the variables in Lighttpd?
(the first part of the url.rewrite rule is to ensure that files that exist are displayed properly)

Try something like this:
"^/something/(\d+)(?:\?(.*))?" => "/index.php?bla=$1&$2"
or this
"^/([^.?]*)\?(.*)$" => "/index.php?q=$1&$2",
"^/([^.?]*)$" => "/index.php?q=$1"

How do you phpunit test redirection to urls with extra (dynamic) parameters?

In L4.2, I have been trying to use the phpunit helpers assertRedirectedToRoute() or assertRedirectedToAction(), but they don’t work when there are additional optional params put on the url.
For instance, I have this route:
Route::get('properties/create/{step?}/{property_id?}', [
'as' => 'admin.properties.createStep',
'uses' => 'PropertiesController#createStep']);
However, $this->assertRedirectedToAction(‘App\Controllers\PropertiesController#createStep’) fails with the following response:
1) AdminPropertiesTest::testSearchPostDataWithoutEANPropertyId
Failed asserting that two strings are equal.
--- Expected
+++ Actual
## ##
-'http://localhost/admin/properties/create'
+'http://localhost/admin/properties/create/3/194921'
How do I get an assertion to pass without declaring the "3" or "194921" in the url (as they are dynamic) and using assertRedirectedTo()?

Lighttpd rewrite-if-not-file cannot process *php and *html in one rule

To enable a shorten-url service, I had to add a rewrite rule to my
lighttpd.conf. This seems to be important, otherwise shortlinks like
http://example.com/Xf6Y would return a 404 error. This is because Xf6Y
is not a file but a shortlink hash.
So I added these lines to my lighttpd.conf:
url.rewrite-if-not-file = (
"^/(.*)$" => "/index.php?fwd=$1"
)
This works excellently, except for websites that contain a index.html
instead of an index.php.
I tried to duplicate the rewrite rule, like url.rewrite-if-not-file = (
"^/(.)(\?.)?$" => "/index.php?fwd=$1",
"^/(.)(\?.)?$" => "/index.html?fwd=$1"
)
This resulted in a "duplicate rule" error, so lighttpd is
not able to restart.
Does anyone know how to write a rewrite rule that will redirect index.php and index.html?

Remove index.php from URL using mod_rewrite in Lighttpd

I'm trying to remove the index.php from https://test.mysite.com.br/api/index.php/get/0/32342543 with no success.
I've tried:
url.rewrite-once = (
"^/(test)(.*)” => “/$1$2",
"^/(.*)$” => “/index.php/$1"
)
and also:
url.rewrite = (
"^/(.*)\.(.+)$" => "$0",
"^/(.+)/?$" => "/api/index.php/$1"
)
But both didn't work. What is the correct syntax for url.rewrite?
enable lighttpd module "mod_rewrite" in /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf

CakePHP named paramaters in FireFox Causing issues

We have a cakephp app running on 2.0 and we seem to be having some encoding issues with Firefox.
The URL we are accessing is /newcms/core/users/index/conditions[User][group_id]:6 to apply a filter in out cms system.
In everything but FireFox we get the following on the request object
[params] => Array
(
[plugin] => core
[controller] => users
[action] => newcms_index
[named] => Array
(
[conditions] => Array
(
[User] => Array
(
[group_id] => 6
)
)
)
[pass] => Array
(
)
[prefix] => newcms
)
Which is correct and everything works fine, if we goto the same URL in FireFox we get
[params] => Array
(
[plugin] => core
[controller] => users
[action] => newcms_index
[named] => Array
(
[conditions%5BUser%5D%5Bgroup_id%5D] => 6
)
[pass] => Array
(
)
[prefix] => newcms
)
I have tried URL encoding the named condition value but with no luck..
Any suggestions?
It's probably not a great idea to be using brackets and an array structure in your URL.
Why not just use something like this?:
/newcms/core/users/index/user_group:6
Then process the data in the controller.
Well after a bit of digging and playing around the latest version of cake in GitHub has fixed this FF issue (https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/commit/e6905b44c3d4512b6989c59a1489bc983d88bcdc).
There is nothing incorrect about passing square brackets in the URI it was just an issue with the way FF encoded them differently than the other browsers.

Lighttpd rewrite for Codeigniter breaking on certain URLs

I moved from apache to lighttpd, and since then certain URLs break the rewriting and give 404. No details in access.log, error.log regarding what actual URL was hit.
These kind work:
http://192.168.1.250/loop/rest/admin
But not these:
http://192.168.1.250/loop/rest/admin/logs/file::log-2012-02-14.php
If I skip rewriting and use
http://192.168.1.250/loop/rest/index.php?/admin/logs/file::log-2012-02-14.php
I get what I want,
Here is my rewrite rule:
url.rewrite-once = (
"/(.*)\.(.*)" => "$0",
"/(css|files|img|js|stats)/" => "$0",
"^/([^.]+)$" => "/loop/rest/index.php/$1"
)
Any help would be appreciated.
I was just having the same issues when testing my codeigniter app on lighttpd
This worked for me:
url.rewrite = (
".*\.(js|ico|gif|jpg|png|swf|css|html)$" => "$0",
"^/(.*)$" => "index.php/$1"
)
maybe you could try this for your setup:
url.rewrite = (
".*\.(js|ico|gif|jpg|png|swf|css|html)$" => "$0",
"^/(.*)$" => "/loop/rest/index.php/$1"
)
Make sure you have uncommented mod_rewrite at the top.. it comes default with a # in front of it.
I have found the correct rules:
First of all please make sure that your root directive points to the root of your CI setupd.
root /var/www/loop;
Then this location directive will work perfectly fine:
location /
{
if (!-e $request_filename)
{
rewrite ^/(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 last;
break;
}
}
