Where did the other slash go after the http:/?

MergeSlashes defaults to "on".

I've added the following to my vhost config:

MergeSlashes off

but it doesn't make a difference. What could I be doing wrong? This is apache-2.4.69 on fedora40.

https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/core.html#mergeslashes

This works:

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST}   "GET /http:/(.*) HTTP/1.1"
RewriteRule ^ https://%1 [L,R=301,NE]
