Debug-level logs do not help much for debugging problems within mod_proxy. Try replacing the ProxyPass with the equivalent RewriteRule. RewriteLog log/rewrite_log RewriteLogLevel 3 RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^(/.*)$ http://intranet.foo.org$1 [P,L] ProxyPassReverse / http://intranet.foo.org/ You should now get some pretty detailed logs about what is happening. -ascs -----Original Message----- From: bsdsec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bsdsec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, January 16, 2006 2:10 PM To: Axel-Stéphane SMORGRAV Cc: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: [users@httpd] ProxyPass does not work with hostnames onlyIP's.(mod_proxyApache 1.3) Hey, thanks for your help. I tried ping, nslookup which both work. I even tried lynx and was able to bring up the page directly. I set LogLevel to "debug" and had a look in my error.log: [Mon Jan 16 23:28:23 2006] [notice] Apache/1.3.29 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.8.16 OpenSSL/ 0.9.7g configured -- resuming normal operations [Mon Jan 16 23:28:23 2006] [info] Server built: unknown [Mon Jan 16 23:28:23 2006] [notice] Accept mutex: sysvsem (Default: sysvsem) [Mon Jan 16 23:28:26 2006] [debug] proxy_cache.c(0): Request for http://internal.foo.org/favicon.ico, pragma_req=(unset), ims=0 [Mon Jan 16 23:28:26 2006] [debug] proxy_util.c(0): File /var/cache/Q/S/j/EGecnq Rx1ZGkeYQFKdg not found [Mon Jan 16 23:28:26 2006] [debug] proxy_cache.c(0): Local copy not present or e xpired.

Declining. ------------------------------- Is all I get. I got the idea that maybe it was the caching that was the problem so I took out all caching directives then restarted apache and got a log like this: [Mon Jan 16 23:29:36 2006] [notice] Apache/1.3.29 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.8.16 OpenSSL/ 0.9.7g configured -- resuming normal operations [Mon Jan 16 23:29:36 2006] [info] Server built: unknown [Mon Jan 16 23:29:36 2006] [notice] Accept mutex: sysvsem (Default: sysvsem) [Mon Jan 16 23:29:43 2006] [debug] proxy_cache.c(0): No CacheRoot, so no caching . Declining. ------------------------------- With the same result... FYI when I set ProxyPass to an IP (which works) my error log shows: [Mon Jan 16 23:36:31 2006] [debug] proxy_cache.c(0): Request for http://172.16.0.5/, pragma_req=(unset), ims=0 [Mon Jan 16 23:36:31 2006] [debug] proxy_util.c(0): File /var/cache/4/g/H/NhiNLMZwLXwWY9wfp2w not found [Mon Jan 16 23:36:31 2006] [debug] proxy_cache.c(0): Local copy not present or expired.
