Page caching for urls with dots

Rails
1

hi everyone,

I have a pesky problem with page caching, sorry if it sounds dummy.
Whenever I’m caching an url like
/controller/argument.with.dots
instead of getting a saved page like
/public/controller/arguments.with.dots.html
I get
/public/controller/arguments.with.dots
which makes the webserver confused as to how to send it (it gets a
Content-Type of text/plain instead of text/html).

Is this a bug or an expected behaviour?
Is there a way I could workaround it at the rails level, instead of
messing with the webserver?

I’ve also had this problem in the past, though the only way I managed to
fix
it was on Apache, in a .htaccess file in the cache directory concerned,
containing:

ForceType text/html

Which worked, but feels a bit kludgy. I think it’s possibly a rails
bug,
though haven’t looked into it much.

Cheers,
