Description:
------------
Using the php as webserver, the request to a route in witch there is one or more dots fails.
For example the route I've used is http://127.0.0.1:8000/v2.1/
The response is "The requested resource /v2.1/ was not found on this server."
I suppose php looks for a phisic resource, infact if a file stored into a subdir named v2.1 in the webroot, the response is positive.

So if you rename the directory to something without a period, it starts working? With no other changes whatsoever?

Because the built-in server does not do directory listings or use index files. You need a router script for that. You should use a router script anyways to reproduce the behaviors you'd get from your actual web server (URL rewriting being another prime example).

  <?php
  $file = $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] . $_SERVER["SCRIPT_NAME"];
  if (is_dir($file) && is_file($file . "/index.php")) {
    include $file . "/index.php";
    return true;
  }
  return false;
  ?>

Using the above router script makes /v2.1 and /v2.1/ work for me on Windows.

This may be completely unrelated to filenames; I'm seeing a similar problem with dots in request URI's when rewriting everything to /index.php (see also https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=67671, containing another example). Not sure if this is the same issue; if it is, feel free to delete / merge mine.

Yea! It seems the same bug (https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=67671)
I'll close this
