What do you mean by "URI stays as http://www.temple.edu/mmc/ and not as /sct/mmc/" ?? Do you mean what appears in the address bar is not /sct/mmc? Why would that change? You do not do any redirect! Furthermore, because of the ProxyPassReverse, any /sct/mmc/ in Location headers in redirects will be rewritten into /mmc/. To your browser, the fact that the path to the resource on the backend server is /sct/mmc is totally transparent. That's reverse proxying. What is the underlying problem? -ascs -----Original Message----- From: S.A. Birl [mailto:sbirl+Apache-List@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, August 23, 2005 7:12 PM To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [users@httpd] What is the hierarchy/precedence of 2.0 directives? (Redirect problem) Hello All: Where can I find (or does anyone know) the order in which Apache preforms its directives? It may or may not solve the underlying problem below, but a recent discussion I had prompted the above question. The underlying problem I have 2 entries in the file proxies.conf -------------------------------------------------------------------- # proxy directives for http://www.temple.edu/mmc RewriteRule ^/+mmc((/+.*)?$) http://SERVER.temple.edu/sct/mmc$1 [P] ProxyPassReverse /mmc/ http://SERVER.temple.edu/sct/mmc/ -------------------------------------------------------------------- (not inside of a VirtualHost) When I enter http://www.temple.edu/mmc, the request is proxied to http://server.temple.edu/sct/mmc/ and the URI is re-written as http://www.temple.edu/sct/mmc/. This is what I expect and has always worked as expected. The problem is when I enter http://www.temple.edu/mmc/ (note the trailing slash) The request is still proxied to http://server.temple.edu/sct/mmc, but the URI stays as http://www.temple.edu/mmc/ and not as /sct/mmc/. My question about the order of directives stems from trying to add Redirect permanment /mmc http://www.temple.edu/sct/mmc/ to httpd.conf to compensate. I even tried anther RewriteRule, but that didnt work either. RewriteRule ^/+mmc/((/+.*)?$) http://SERVER.temple.edu/sct/mmc$1 [P] How can I fix the underlying problem? Thanks. Birl Please do not CC me responses to my own posts.
