Question mark in folder name

Server NGINX
1

Hello,

I’ve noticed a strange issue using nginx 0.8.54 where a question mark in
the folder name will cause 404 errors regardless of it existing or not.

If I manually replace the ? with the encoded %3F it will work fine…

Thanks

anything after question mark is query string.

No, not really. This patch still actual (not present in latest
nginx).
