mod_vhost_alias does not resolve "%0"

[Shanti Suresh <shanti@xxxxxxxxx>]

Greetings,

mod_vhost_alias is not resolving %0.  Perhaps I am doing something wrong.  I would like to redirect a specific page to the encrypted site.  Everything else goes straight thru' to Tomcat.  I get a "%250" in my browser redirect.

This is what I have:

-----------httpd.conf snippet:------

LoadModule vhost_alias_module         modules/mod_vhost_alias.so

Listen 80
NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName qa.site.domain.edu
...
  ProxyPassMatch ^/.*/securechannel !
  RedirectMatch permanent ^/(.*)/securechannel https://%0/$1/securechannel

  ProxyPass / http://qaserver1.site.domain.edu:8080/
  ProxyPassReverse / http://qaserver1.site.domain.edu:8080/

</VirtualHost>
-----------End of httpd.conf snippet:------

My browser gets redirected to "https://%250/test/securechannel" and Safari complains with "Safari can't find the server" when I access "http://qa.site.domain.edu/test/securechannel".

The following however works:
 RedirectMatch permanent ^/(.*)/securechannel https://qa.site.domain.edu/$1/securechannel

So how do I eliminate "%250" and get HTTPD to pass the HTTP request over to the HTTPS side for that one page?

Thanks,
