Hi
I have set up Apache HTTP Server 2.2.3 with mod_proxy, mod_proxy_ajp and
mod_cache as a reverse proxy in front of a Tomcat 5.5 server. The
solution works fine except that I am having trouble getting Apache to
cache content from a directory that is protected using Basic
Authentication.
Both servers are running on Windows XP.
>From the Apache documentation I have read that Apache won't cache
Authenticated content:
"If the request contains an "Authorization:" header, the response will
not be cached."
Is there any way to force Apache HTTP Server to cache responses from
Tomcat protected with Basic Authentication?
I have tried using the Cache-Control header with the "public" option
with no luck.
My settings from httpd.conf:
============================
LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_ajp_module modules/mod_proxy_ajp.so
<Location /MyFolder>
ProxyPass ajp://appsrv:8009/MyApp
ProxyPassReverse ajp://appsrv:8009/MyApp
</Location>
LoadModule cache_module modules/mod_cache.so
<IfModule mod_cache.c>
LoadModule disk_cache_module modules/mod_disk_cache.so
<IfModule mod_disk_cache.c>
CacheRoot c:/cacheroot/
CacheEnable disk /MyFolder/data/
CacheEnable disk /MyFolder/images/
CacheEnable disk /MyFolder/js/
CacheEnable disk /MyFolder/css/
CacheEnable disk /MyFolder/secure/
CacheDirLevels 5
CacheDirLength 3
</IfModule>
</IfModule>
