Fails fetching kickstart file

Support
1

I have a problem when pxe is trying to fetch the kickstart file.

My pxelinux.cfg:

>DEFAULT menu
>PROMPT 0
>MENU TITLE PXE Menu
>TIMEOUT 200
>TOTALTIMEOUT 6000
>ONTIMEOUT local
>
>LABEL local
> MENU LABEL (local)
> MENU DEFAULT
> LOCALBOOT 0
>
>LABEL Kickstart Default - POI
> kernel boot/MetroEL-1.0-i386-vmlinuz
> append initrd=boot/MetroEL-1.0-i386-initrd.img ks=http://192.168.50.173/unattended/template/Kickstart%20Default/POI ksdevice=bootif network kssendmac

When anaconda tries to fetch kickstart file I receive 404 error in
access.log from apache with passenger:

> 192.168.50.202 - - [29/Mar/2011:02:16:34 +0400] "GET /./unattended/template/Kickstart%20Default/POI HTTP/1.0" 404 947 "-" "-"

Then I connected telnet to port 80 and query:

> GET /./unattended/template/Kickstart%20Default/POI -----> FAILS 404
> GET /unattended/template/Kickstart%20Default/POI ------> OK

Why PXE add this dot?
Why apache, passenger or webrick are misunderstanding this URL?

Thanks in advance, i'm improving!

Im playing with mod_rewrite in apache to delete de conflictive point
but now i receive a 301 or 301 code. The webserver is redirecting well
the kickstart petition but PXE seems not capable to follow the
redirection. Any clue?

Mi httpd.conf:

<VirtualHost >
ServerName foreman.metro.local
DocumentRoot /usr/share/foreman/public
RailsEnv production
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/foreman.log
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET\s/./.\sHTTP/…$
RewriteRule .* http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [G]

</VirtualHost>

obviously the [G] option was a test. Not really there

All options for hostgroups are correctly setted, of course.

In error logs from foreman appears 404 also:
Processing ApplicationController#index (for 192.168.50.202 at
2011-03-29 17:30:11) [GET]
Rendering /usr/share/foreman/public/404.html (404 Not Found)

apache access log:
192.168.50.202 - - [29/Mar/2011:17:30:11 +0400] "GET /./unattended/
template/Kickstart%20Default/POI HTTP/1.0" 404 947 "-" "-"

I make test for bypass passenger and apache and fails too, when i try
to fetch kickstart trough port 3000 the same error happens:

curl http://192.168.50.173:3000/unattended/template/Kickstart%20Default/POI
—> OK
curl http://192.168.50.173:3000/./unattended/template/Kickstart%20Default/POI
----> FAILS (404)

Thanks!

Did you set all of the proper options in the selected host group (POI)?
When you were getting a 404, did you see any errors in the logs?
