lighttpd forum lighty > bug? PHP_SELF always empty

Hi,

since using 1.4.8 i have noticed a strange bug(?). Suddenly PHP_SELF i 
always empty. Usually this is a comon behavour if PHP is used as CLI but 
before 1.4.8 i never had this issue. php and its ini has not been 
changed. Only lighty has been changed.

Any suggestions?!

Best Regards

Simon

Configuring PHP
If you want to use PATH_INFO and PHP_SELF in you PHP scripts you have to 
configure php and lighttpd. The php.ini needs the option:

cgi.fix_pathinfo = 1

As long as you don't use PATHINFO you usually don't see this.

as written before: the content, the php scripts -- NOTHING has been 
changed but lighty. ;) so it must be lighty who has changed sumthing. 
however, since the case is solved... so what?!
