查看apache的错误日志显示如下:

就是所有要显示的页里有冒号都出这个错,这种事是apache2在微软的windows环境

All Pages with a ":" in the address receive this error.
Pages display with a 403 ERROR.
Apache 2 on Windows
PHP 5

解决办法可采用URL rewriting办法修改.htaccess

另外在mediawiki可采用设置参数不让显示：

LocalSettings.php:

$wgArticlePath = $wgScriptPath.'/index.php?title=$1';

That's a problem with Apache in Windows - there's an entry in the Apache bugzilla. It's been there a long time.

The problem is that Windows forbids a colon in the path except where a drive specification is set - C:/.... No one seems to know what to do about it.

I get those but the page displays nonetheless. Are you doing any URL rewriting?

Code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^wiki/(.*) /wiki/index.php?title=$1 [PT,L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^wiki/*$ wiki/ [L,QSA]

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

Try adding a rule before all the other rules that skips the rewrite when a colon in in the URL. E.g.:

Code:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(.*)MediaWiki: [OR,NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(.*)Talk:      [OR,NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(.*)Template:  [OR,NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(.*)User:      [OR,NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(.*)Special:   [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ -                        [S=nnnn]

You'll have to replace nnnn with the number of rewrite rules to skip. I'm not sure how you count the conditional rules you have there.

It goes in the Apache configuration file - either httpd.conf or htaccess.

URL rewriting is not for the faint of heart. See mod_rewrite

 

A simpler way than use rewrite rules, is setting MediaWiki to use the article names as parameters instead of using them as file names.

I have just added the following in LocalSettings.php:

$wgArticlePath = $wgScriptPath.'/index.php?title=$1';

And all worked fine for me.
