Change in ForceType behavior?

[Anon]

I just upgraded from apache_1.3.12/php_4.0.1pl2 to apache_1.3.14/php_4.0.4pl1. My httpd.conf includes the following:

<Location /search>
ForceType application/x-httpd-php
</Location>

My HTML code looks something like:

<form method=post action="/search">
<input name=query>
<input type=submit>
</form>

This worked fine prior to the upgrade, but no results in:

Not Found
The requested URL /search was not found on this server.

The only I can get it to work is by changing the form's action line to include a trailing slash:

<form method=post action="/search/">

As I did not see this documented anywhere, I thought I'd see if anyone else has encountered this, knows this to be normal behavior, and/or can tell me what I may have done wrong.

Thx.

Per the example in the original message, the php file is called search and sits in the root web directory. Thus the location of /search should work fine and /search/ should make no sense as it is not a directory. Very odd that this had been working prior to the upgrade as well.

search/ does make sense, print $PATH_INFO and you should get /. But it doesn't explain why it doesn't work without it.
