What's the output of

  curl -i 

on the starting url?

If it doesn't have the correct /property/ url, then add the two lines

phpinfo(INFO_VARIABLES);
print("\nold=$old\nnew=$new\n");

immediately after the header() lines, and test again using curl. See
is the problem in "old" or in "new", and debug accordingly. (Maybe your
fastcgi server doesn't provide variables in the $_SERVER array.)

Note that the example was described as "incomplete", partly because
the Location: header should have the full http://host/url. You can pick
appropriate variables and include them in the header() line.
