Hi,

in perl_lib/EPrints/Apache/Rewrite.pm, line 219 the incoming 
URI is checked whether is ends with a slash, and if yes, the
filename index.html is added automatically. 
Unfortunately, it is NOT checked whether the URI is a directory
(without trailing slash). Thus I suggest to include the following:

        # apache 2 does not automatically look for index.html so we have to do ↵
it ourselves
        my $localpath = $uri;
        if( $uri =~ m#/$# )
        {
                $localpath.="index.html";
        }
##CSL check if $uri is a directory!!
        elsif( -d $repository->get_conf( "htdocs_path" ↵
)."/".$lang.$uri )
        {
                $localpath.="/index.html";
        }
        $r->filename( $repository->get_conf( "htdocs_path" ↵
)."/".$lang.$localpath );

        if( $uri =~ m#^/view(.*)# )

It cases quite a bit problem when visiting the "browse/subject" ↵
directory; the
browse list is regenerated, no matter what.

Best,

Laszlo
