--- Begin Message ---Hi Everyone, I've been stuck on this problem for some time: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8431 After reading the bug report, it states that the problem is fixed in apache 2.1 (by adding the "virtual" option to the Action directive), but I still am unable to figure out what to do to about Actions and AddHandlers on virtual (i.e. non-existant) files under apache 2.0.X. I am still stuck. What I'm trying to do is accept request for files that end in mp3 or ogg, as well as filenames such as "xxxxxx.mp3.ogg" to be handled by my reencode.cgi script which knows from the extension whether or not to cat the original file or, in the case of "xxxxxx.mp3.ogg" take the original (existing) xxxxxx.mp3 file and reencode it to ogg vorbis (at a lower bitrate, for example). One possible solution mentioned in the bug report that I was unable to get to work was to use ScriptAliasMatch, such as in the following scenario: ScriptAliasMatch "\.(ogg|mp3)$" /cgi-bin/reencode.cgi I was unable to get this to work. Everything used to work fine under apache 1.3 by doing: AddHandler music_file .mp3 .ogg Action music_file /cgi-bin/reencode.cgi But alas, I get a 404 error on files such as "xxxxxx.mp3.ogg" since it does not map to an actual existing file. Could someone please suggest a possible solution for apache 2.0.X? It'd also be good to add this solution to the bug report and documentation.
