Hi httpd users, I've been testing Apache httpd 2.2.4 as a reverse-caching proxy server but I've ran into some odd behavior with how its handling expired content. Currently I'm using the worker MPM and mod_mem_cache to provide the storage. I haven't tested this with prefork or mod_disk_cache yet, but if its worth it I can test that configuration too. Here are some entries from the error log with loglevel debug:
Note that the Content-Encoding gzip is actually from Apache 2.2.4 not the backend.
I would try two things: 1. mod_disk_cache, which is better tested and maintained than mod_mem_cache, and will often be just as performant given a good virtual file system layer. 2. Remove the gzip encoding. There are some fixes recently introduced in trunk for problems with vary-processing in the cache. These may (or may not) be causing the problem you see. They will probably make it into the next 2.2 release.
