Summary	0011162: merchant report generation doesn't support query parameters
Description	When specifying a path like this one /private/orders?max_age=3600000 the taler-merchant-report-generator reports a 404. When removing the query parameter, it works. However, for daily transaction reports, we need the query parameter.

Christian Grothoff 2026-02-25 21:44 manager ~0027905	Ok, figured it out. The TMH_dispatch_request() bypasses the MHD URI parsing logic, leaving the "?" in the path and additionally fails to set the query parameters when actually handling the request. Tricky to fix well. On it.

Christian Grothoff 2026-02-25 21:53 manager ~0027906	e0d40ac0..a4911b5a should fix it, alas I didn't actually run that specific code path.
