[php-maint] Bug#464389: php5-cgi: _SERVER["PHP_SELF"] ($PHP_SELF) is empty

[Olaf van der Spek]

/etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf:
server.document-root       = "/var/www/"
server.modules  += ( "mod_fastcgi", "mod_rewrite", "mod_redirect" )
fastcgi.server = (
         ".php" => ((
                 "bin-path" => "/usr/bin/php-cgi",
                      "socket" => "/tmp/php.socket",
                      "max-procs" => 1,
                      "bin-environment" => (
                        "PHP_FCGI_CHILDREN" => "4",
                        "PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS" => "10000"
                      ),
                      "bin-copy-environment" => (
                        "PATH", "SHELL", "USER"
                      ),
                      "broken-scriptfilename" => "disable"
         ))

/var/www/api.php
<?php

print_r($_SERVER);

It still works for me.

 > "broken-scriptfilename" => "enable"

This is the default (AFAIK), you've disabled it. Maybe that's related?
