Hello all, I've configured an Apache 2.0 instance to work as a reverse proxy, listening on external.address.com and redirecting to internal.address.com. The relevant lines of the httpd.conf file are : Listen external.address.com:80 <VirtualHost external.address.com:80> ProxyPass / http://internal.address.com/ ProxyPassReverse / http://internal.address.com/ </VirtualHost> This works fine, and all our URLs (which look like http://external.address.com/newsite/whatever) are correctly rerouted to http://internal.address.com/newsite/whatever However, we'd like to maintain backwards-compatibility with the old site. This means that the old URLs such as http://external.address.com/images/xyz or http://external.address.com/html/abc should be rewritten as http://external.address.com/newsite/images/xyz or http://external.address.com/newsite/html/abc BEFORE going through mod_proxy. Accordingly, I've tried modifying the VirtualHost section so : <VirtualHost external.address.com:80> RewriteEngine on RewriteLog /path/to/logs/rewrite_log RewriteLogLevel 100 RewriteRule ^/images/(.*) /newsite/images/$1 [L] RewriteRule ^/html/(.*) /newsite/html/$1 [L] ... ProxyPass / http://internal.address.com/ ProxyPassReverse / http://internal.address.com/ </VirtualHost> This, however, doesn't work. The log file is created, but stays desesperately empty, and all the requests to http://external.address.com/html/abc are directly rerouted to http://internal.address.com/html/abc I've tried replacing [L] by [P] or [QSA] in the rules, and placing the Rewrite directives outside of the VirtualHost section, but that doesn't change anything. I've read in the archive that using [P] and removing the ProxyPass directive should work, but that would break the redirection for the new URLs. The httpd -l command shows mod_rewrite.c, so the module is indeed here. Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong ? Thanks in advance.
