problem with URLs on FastCGI after update to 1.0

[kyprizel]

all URI resolve to root(/) after updating django from beta to 1.0-release.
here is part of urls.py:

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    (r'^$', 'src.views.main_index'),
    (r'^feedback/$', 'src.views.feedback'),
    (r'^admin/(.*)', admin.site.root)
)

trying to access /feedback/ but always get result of 'src.views.main_index'.

I use nginx web server, configured to use the same PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME,
so ​http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/8490 made problems for me.
Is my config incorrect?

simple wsgi patch to solve problem

[QingFeng]

Django+nginx+prefork is problem too

[Malcolm Tredinnick]

I don't believe this patch is really fixing the root problem. It looks like it's forcing script name to an incorrect value and just kind of works by accident.

The real question here is why does script name have a value of feedback/? That looks like either a configuration bug or a bug in nginx or something. We need to understand that a bit better before working out a solution to this problem.

[Malcolm Tredinnick]

(Moving out of design decision needed, since this is either a bug or not. If it's a bug, we should fix it. There's no design decision needed, just a proper understanding and solution.)

fixed #8490

Replying to qingfeng:

fixed #8490

The fact the the fix for #8490 may have introduced this problem does not make this a dupe of #8490. Please leave #8490 closed and put info relevant to fixing this problem in this ticket, not there.

Django Application conf

nginx+django project conf file:

​http://code.djangoproject.com/attachment/ticket/8874/nginx.conf

​http://code.djangoproject.com/attachment/ticket/8874/sina.conf

urls.py:

from django.conf.urls.defaults import *

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    (r'^hello/', 'demo.views.hello'),
)

demo/views.py

from django.http import HttpResponse

def hello(request):
    return HttpResponse("Hello")

Django 1.1 Test:

curl -I ​http://localhost/hello

Restuls:

use new patch:

​http://code.djangoproject.com/attachment/ticket/8874/wsgi_r11339.diff

curl -I ​http://localhost/hello

Results:

The correct config for nginx. If you uncomment commented strings you fall into very strange and scarry bugs(ex. RequestContext will go down or url-tag will do strange things). I'm posting it here as I spent 4 days to catch all problems with fcgi and solutions in the internet didn't work for me.

    location / {
        #DO NOT INCLUDE include         /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_param   QUERY_STRING      $query_string;
        fastcgi_param   REQUEST_METHOD    $request_method;
        fastcgi_param   REQUEST_URI       $request_uri;

        fastcgi_param   CONTENT_TYPE      $content_type;
        fastcgi_param   CONTENT_LENGTH    $content_length;

        #DO NO SET fastcgi_param   SCRIPT_NAME       $fastcgi_script_name;
        fastcgi_param   PATH_INFO         $uri;
        fastcgi_param   SERVER_PROTOCOL   $server_protocol;

        fastcgi_param   SERVER_NAME       $server_name;
        fastcgi_param   SERVER_PORT       $server_port;

        fastcgi_param   REMOTE_ADDR       $remote_addr;
        fastcgi_param   REMOTE_PORT       $remote_port;

        fastcgi_pass    unix:/home/exe_messir_net/tmp/fcgi.sock;
    }

It should at least be documented on perhaps the server configuration documentation page that you can't define both PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME when using nginx fastcgi. This caused django to fail in a bewildering way and took me quite a while to figure out.

This isn't a bug, so I'm closing it. Feel free to open a new ticket with a documentation patch if you like.

See #17550 for an annoying consequence of this fix.
