$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] returns full URL instead of path to script

Question

My PHP app is not working because of $_SERVER[\'REQUEST_URI\'] returns the full url to the script instead of a relative path.

My environment:
Wind

Answer 1

Had the same issue recently,
My solution:
Firstly check if your http://localhost has the same effect.(which i see i didn't)
If not then added your virtual host(domains) to /etc/host file.

Hope this is helpful.

Answer 2

I believe you're receiving the desired effect of creating a virtual host:

No Virtual Host:

/ivankristianto/request.php 

With Virtual Host:

http://www.ivankristianto.local/request.php

http://www.ivankristianto.local - I think this seems wrong to you because it contains http://www and .local - you could change this to just invankristano and your REQUEST_URI would output the same as if you had no virtual host. It's representing the path to your request.php - that you've set in the hosts file and is therefore valid part of the URI.

So basically what I'm saying is there's nothing wrong.

If it's causing you problems, then one solution would be to determine which environment you're in - e.g

if($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] == 'www.ivankristianto.local') {
    $dev_env = TRUE;
}else {
    $dev_env = FALSE;
}

then somewhere use that:

if($dev_env) {
    $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] = str_replace($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'],'',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
}

update

try changing host conf to:

<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "D:/HTDOCS/ivankristianto"
ServerName ivankristianto.local
UseCanonicalName Off
<Directory "D:/HTDOCS/ivankristianto">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride all
    Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

(remove www. from ServerName)

I finally got it working.
Here is the steps i did ( i don't know why it is effected, but it is working now ).

1. Install PHP Fastcgi on xampp, i follow this steps: https://commaster.net/content/installing-php-fastcgi-and-zend-opcache-xampp-windows
2. I load the mod_fcgid, but i don't use php-cgi.exe handler
3. Update my /etc/hosts file and flush dns with this command ipconfig /flushdns
4. Restart apache

And it is working somehow.
Honestly i don't know why it is working, but if someone stumble the same problem, i hope the solution might help.
