The only way to resolve this problem is to transform your ProxyPass rules into RewriteRule rules. I can see no reason why upgrading from Solaris 8 to Solaris 10 should change anything wrt the order in which the modules are executed. This is something that Apache determines itself based on the way the module hooks are defined. The module developer can loosely define the order in which a module hook should be executed by specifying whether it should be early, middle or late. He/She can also specify a list of other modules before or after which each module hook should be executed. ProxyPass /foo/ http://my.host.com/boo/ is equivalent to RewriteRule ^/foo/(.*) http://my.host.com/boo/$1 [P] -ascs -----Original Message----- From: Kevin D.

Any ideas would be highly appreciated. I am running Apache 2.0.55 on Solaris. I have some mod-rewrite rules that had been working properly that make changes to URLs that also would be valid under some mod_proxy settings on a specific name based virtual host. Mod_rewrite is compiled into httpd and mod_proxy is loaded as a DSO. I upgraded the Solaris OS from 8 to 10 and now the proxy rules are taking priority over the mod_rewrite rules and my rewrites are failing. I have some rewrite rules that don't conflict with mod_proxy rules and they work as expected so I know both modules are loaded and working properly. With Apache 1.X I specifically loaded modules in a set order so mod_rewrite would have precedence over mod_proxy. Can this be done with Apache 2.0? I tried recompiling Apache on the new OS but that had no effect. Thanks.
