Subject: NPH and Microsoft IIS 6.0
Hi Lincoln, I've found a possible inaccuracy in the documentation for the redirect() function. On a Microsoft IIS 6.0 server, I actually had to remove the nph => 1 setting in order to get redirects to work which contradicts the docs: "The -nph parameter, if set to a true value, will issue the correct headers to work with a NPH (no-parse-header) script. This is important to use with certain servers, such as Microsoft IIS, which expect all their scripts to be NPH." Unfortunately, I don't have any other IIS servers to test against. William

Hello William, If you are still interested in this change, I think the best course of action is to reference Microsoft IIS documentation to find out which versions expect all their CGI scripts to be NPH, and which don't. Mark

Hi Mark, Glad to see you cleaning up the old CGI tickets. This report is so old that I think it can just be closed. It's a non-issue for me at this point. William -- Knowmad Technologies http://www.knowmad.com

I'm glad to help. Lincoln made me an official co-maintainer, so I can actually resolve tickets now. Show quoted text
