mod_rewrite 'add path info postfix:'

Why is my mod_rewrite doing this?

add path info postfix: /home/mobelluk/public_html/about.php -> /home/mobelluk/public_html/about.php/

which results in an unwanted trailing slash on EVERYTHING.

I have disabled all my .htaccess rules so they're out of the equation.

apparently there's been an issue with mod_rewrite re-appending post-fix part in certain cases https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=38642

The problem:

If multiple RewriteRules within a .htaccess file match, unwanted copies of PATH_INFO may accumulate at the end of the URI.

If you are on Apache 2.2.12 or later, you can use the DPI flag to prevent this http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/rewrite/flags.html
