(Wasn't sure where to post this - hope here is OK).
I don't want to use the profile page in Gossamer Forum as I already have a profile page in LinksSQL - so I thought I could just use rewrite rules to point the GForum profile page at the Links profile. This works fine for users which do not have spaces in their usernames. However for those that do, I get a 400 error and in the error logs:
request failed: erroneous characters after protocol string: GET /perl/profile.pl?user=Username With Spaces HTTP/1.1
Note - I'm using mod_proxy to a backend mod_perl server. The username is escaped to begin with but somewhere the %20 changes back to a space.
Any ideas?
I wish I hadn't allowed usernames with spaces from the beginning - but I did.
