We implemented a workaround to fix this problem. Basically it involves modifying modules/proxy/proxy_util.c to remove the comma from the list of characters in each "allowed" variable declaration (~lines 136-145). I'm not sure if this is likely to break anything else (aside from the RFC 1738 spec ;), but it's working for us now. JB On 9/8/06, Robert Jaeschke <jaeschke@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:

You're right, there were several posts addressing this (or similiar) issues: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/httpd-users/200312.mbox/%3CLaw15-F430AhIMix3VX00026154@xxxxxxxxxxx%3E http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/httpd-dev/200304.mbox/%3C20030427091312.GB28492@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx%3E http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox//www-modproxy-dev/200406.mbox/%3C40DB166A.6030609@xxxxxxxx%3E http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/httpd-users/200607.mbox/%3cD98EDC8DA509404185E74C0DFA2BF42D185133@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx%3e I now understand why the decoding is done (caching, matching), but I'm missing either an option to re-encode the URL or to not decode it at all.
