Description

Hi,

In a few place in [browser:django/trunk/django/views/debug.py] a string is built to show the request, like so:

      <th>Request URL:</th>
      <td>{{ request_protocol }}://{{ request.META.HTTP_HOST }}{{ request.path_info|escape }}</td>

However, request.path_info is only relative to root URL of which ever settings module is being used. To correct this, the script name (e.g., django.root for Apache and mod_python), should be added.

      <th>Request URL:</th>
      <td>{{ request_protocol }}://{{ request.META.HTTP_HOST }}{{ request.META.SCRIPT_NAME }}{{ request.path_info|escape }}</td>

One way to do this would be to modify request.path_info, but I don't think that would be correct. In particular, when listing a 404, the URLs shown should probably only be those be checked for matches, which are "below" the root URL. But, anywhere that lists the protocol, host, and path, should be corrected to match what's in the browser (or queried by a script, etc.).

From what I can see, the following lines should be updated:

  • [browser:django/trunk/django/views/debug.py#L402 402]
  • [browser:django/trunk/django/views/debug.py#L532 532]
  • [browser:django/trunk/django/views/debug.py#L744 744]

I'm hesitating on provding a patch, since I'm not sure if request.META['SCRIPT_NAME'] is always set, and where the trailing slashes are.

Correction to my bad use of Trac linking. Here are the line numbers, with working links to the revision I was looking at:
