Wt

I'm trying to load an url which contains cyrillic symbols:

http://127.0.0.1/wt/app.wt/тест

If I deploy my app as Wt web-server or under Apache it works fine. But when I deploy it under nginx, my app gets incorrect deployPath and all my static resources (images, css files) do not load.

I've made some research and found this piece of code in Boot.js:

var pathInfo = _$_PATH_INFO_$_,
    deployPath = win.location.pathname;

if (!win.opera)
  deployPath = decodeURIComponent(deployPath);

/*
 * Java's weird session encoding could put the path not in the end, e.g.
 * /hello/internalpath;jsessionid=xyz
 */
if (pathInfo.length > 0) {
  var pathI = deployPath.lastIndexOf(pathInfo);
  if (pathI != -1)
    deployPath = deployPath.substr(0, pathI)
        + deployPath.substr(pathI + pathInfo.length);
}
var deployPathInfo = '&deployPath=' + encodeURIComponent(deployPath);

Here it tries to cut pathInfo substring from deployPath.

The problem is that under nginx pathInfo comes in percent encoding and in this case it is not a substring of deployPath which was decoded using decodeURIComponent.

What I get under nginx:

pathInfo= /%d1%82%d0%b5%d1%81%d1%82
deployPath= /wt/app.wt/%D1%82%D0%B5%D1%81%D1%82 
deployPath = decodeURIComponent(deployPath);// decoded deployPath= /wt/app.wt/тест 
var pathI = deployPath.lastIndexOf(pathInfo);
if (pathI != -1) // FALSE

And under Apache:

pathInfo= /тест
deployPath= /wt/app.wt/%D1%82%D0%B5%D1%81%D1%82 
deployPath = decodeURIComponent(deployPath);// decoded deployPath= /wt/app.wt/тест 
var pathI = deployPath.lastIndexOf(pathInfo);
if (pathI != -1) // TRUE

I think that if you decode deployPath, you should also decode pathInfo
