Hi there, I'm an Apache newbie, and currently writing a filter that uses subrequests and runs them (in order to get a response) When the subrequests are sent for content located on my server, there's no problem. I get the response back to the right place and everything works fine. When I'm trying to send a subrequest to the web, I get back a 403 forbidden status. The main request in this case is sent to the web and return with a response. (I got mod_proxy and mod_proxy_http running) I added some logs and it seems like all relative path subrequests are relative to the local root directory, even though the original request was to a remote host. (and the request_rec delivered to ap_sub_req_lookup_uri contains that remote host) Another thing I saw is that the absolute url web subrequests fail at apr_filepath_merge called from ap_core_translate. Is there something I'm missing here? Is it a well-known fact that apache's subrequest mechanism is intended only for local content, or am I just not using it well?
