Summary0005753: CGI PHP (with FCGI) with EMPTY PHP_SELF
Description

When using PHP with FastCGI and lighttpd, $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] is set but it's empty. Checks made by mantis with that variable all fails. Mantis still works, but, for example, the $g_path is wrongly set.

Hint: not only check for (isset($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])) but also && !empty($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])

In config_defaults_inc.php when trying to set $g_path, I did this:

    if (isset($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']) && !empty($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']))
      $t_path = dirname( $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] );
    else
      $t_path = dirname( $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] );

and it worked fine (this also get rid of the default "http://www.example.com/mantis/".

Details Diff		 Use SCRIPT_NAME instead of PHP_SELF

$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] does a similar thing to $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']
except it is defined in the CGI standard. Many web servers, by defualt,
don't expose PHP_SELF when using CGI/FastCGI. They do expose
SCRIPT_NAME, so this is a better choice to use.
