Problem Description:
Accessing cfm or cfc contained in directory that is a symlink will result in unexpected paths in CGI.CF_TEMPLATE_PATH and CGI.PATH_TRANSLATED as well as unexpected results from #expandPath(CGI.script_name)#. CF 9 does not exhibit the issue.
Steps to Reproduce:
on Ubuntu 12.04 or 14.04 (or I expect any Linux, but haven't tried):
download attached tar.gz file
extract in webroot
expect folder structure as:
/my/webroot/symlink_issue/
__ real_test_folder/
____ test_file.cfm
symlink real_test_folder to symlinked_test_folder with commands:
> cd symlink_issue
> ln -s real_test_folder symlinked_test_folder
in browser hit url http://localhost/symlink_issue/symlinked_test_folder/test_file.cfm
observe cfdump of CGI scope
Actual Result:
cgi.cf_template_path variable equal to "/my/webroot/symlink_issue/real_test_folder/test_file.cfm"
Expected Result:
cgi.cf_template_path variable equal to "/my/webroot/symlink_issue/symlinked_test_folder/test_file.cfm"; the same behavior as ColdFusion 9
Any Workarounds:
none known
