Buit-in webserver injects path segments when accessing correct rendered {% url %} about statik HOT 3 CLOSED

... since statik does generate the correct html, it may actually a bug in httpwatcher (https://github.com/thanethomson/httpwatcher)?

from statik.

I also have this problem, but it only happens with statik version 0.18.1 (it works with both 0.17.0 and 0.18.0), so I guess it's something in statik itself.

Edit: more specifically, it stops working with commit 065bed6

So, after much investigation, it turned out it was an issue in httpwatcher after all 😁 Basically, when navigating to a URL without a trailing forward-slash, using a non-standard base path, while using the embedded web server, httpwatcher would incorrectly redirect the request.

It's now been fixed in httpwatcher v0.5.1, and I've updated Statik in v0.18.2 to depend on httpwatcher v0.5.1.

If you're still getting issues with the incorrect redirect, your browser's cache may have to be cleared. I had to clear my cache in Firefox to get it to work properly again, even after installing the new version of Statik.
