💖 Plack::...NameFix(3) 💖

okay bestie, so this page is the man page for Plack::Middleware::IIS6ScriptNameFix — and it's literally here to fix the messy SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO that IIS6 be setting wrong. classic IIS behavior, tbh. 🫠

---

✨ NAME ✨

Plack::Middleware::IIS6ScriptNameFix — it fixes the wrong SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO that IIS6 sets. that's it, that's the whole job, and it ate. 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

so you can drop it in your app.psgi like this:

# in your app.psgi
use Plack::Builder;

builder {
  enable "IIS6ScriptNameFix";
  $app;
};

or, if you're a command-line girlie 🎀:

# Or from the command line
plackup -s FCGI -e 'enable "IIS6ScriptNameFix"' /path/to/app.psgi

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This middleware fixes wrong SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO set by IIS6. no cap. your paths were being lied to and now they're not. 🔥

---

💅 OPTIONS 💅

• force — okay so by default, this middleware checks if the SERVER_SOFTWARE PSGI environment matches what Microsoft IIS server 6-9 would set for FastCGI. but if you set force to true (1), this middleware always applies the fix, regardless of the SERVER_SOFTWARE string. 👑

Use this option if the environment is broken similar to IIS, or if the IIS is updated and the regular expression in this module doesn't match any more — e.g. you're running IIS 10. (the regex said "not today" and you gotta override her 🙈)
