No input file specified on second page of search query results

[glenda]

When using the search box:

Type phrase > Garners search results with multiple pages > Hit "Previous Entries" link at the bottom of first page's results > Second page's results for same search results in "No input file specified."

Click "Previous Entries" link for example in action:
​http://www.agendacide.com/minutes/index.php?s=wordpress&searchbutton=Go%21

Which then results in the following:
​http://www.agendacide.com/minutes/index.php/page/2/?s=wordpress&searchbutton=Go%21

This bug does not replicate itself on WordPress.com.

Can't replicate on my 2.3 testbed either. Have you let Matt near your site? ;-)

I can replicate on my blog on trunk:

​http://photomatt.net/index.php?s=wordpress
​http://photomatt.net/index.php/page/2/?s=wordpress

The difference is with my server setup (multiviews enabled) the index.php/arguments thing works.

However on many, like Dreamhost where Glenda is at, it will return the error above.

Of course if you do it without the index.php it works fine:

​http://photomatt.net/?s=wordpress
​http://photomatt.net/page/2/?s=wordpress

But countless themes have the search action include index.php.

That patch seems to do the trick. Needs more testing to see what side-affects it might have.

Tested on:

• PATH_INFO (/index.php/) permalink structure
• mod_rewrite permalink structure
• PATH_INFO (/index.php/) permalink structure with Page on Front
• mod_rewrite permalink structure with Page on Front

So far so good.

(In [6144]) Always remove index.php from request before contructing page links. fixes #5000
