Hello -- I'm running into a little trouble with mod_proxy and mod_cache; thought someone here might be able to help. I've set up one of our virtual servers to proxy requests to Eurekster, one of our third parties, and cache them. The proxying happens just fine, and the caching happens just fine (see error log snippets below), but subsequent requests don't get served out of the cache -- Apache is making a request to Eurekster every single time. I checked out our request headers: HTTP/1.1 Host: qa.wankelrotaryengine.com User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7 Accept: text/xml,application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/html;q=0.9,text/plain;q=0.8,image/png,*/*;q=0.5 Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5 Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 Keep-Alive: 300 Connection: keep-alive Cookie: CP=null* Cache-Control: max-age=0 Straight up: I don't know a whole lot about caching. But that last one, Cache-Control with a max-age of 0 -- I'm guessing that header that's the culprit, and is essentially what's causing a new request every time. 1. Am I right? Or at least on the right track? 2. How to I get Apache to make requests without this header, or with a greater max-age? The docs imply that mod_expire might be the ticket, so I tried playing with that but I couldn't get it to work (it could be me, I know). Can anyone help? Thanks in advance!
