Nils, Thanks very much for your help. I have made some progress - but still do not have a solution. My snippet from httpd.conf on the Proxy Server (192.168.121.214) is: NameVirtualHost 192.168.121.214:8080 <VirtualHost 192.168.121.214:8080> ServerName test1 ProxyPreserveHost On ProxyPass /testcase1/app http://192.168.122.184/app ProxyPassReverse /testcase1/app http://192.168.122.184/app ProxyHTMLURLMap http://192.168.122.184/app /testcase1/app ProxyPass /testcase2/app http://192.168.122.247/app ProxyPassReverse /testcase2/app http://192.168.122.247/app ProxyHTMLURLMap http://192.168.122.247/app /testcase2/app ErrorLog c:/temp/test-error.log </VirtualHost> My goal is the following: Browser sends requests to the following to the proxy. (I have my DNS set to resolve test1 to 192.168.121.214) Request-1: http://test1:8080/testcase1/app Request-2: http://test1:8080/testcase2/app I want the Proxy Server (192.168.121.214:8080) to route: Request-1 to: http://192.168.122.184/app Request-2 to: http://192.168.122.247/app It doesn't work - produces a 404 Not Found error and the Proxy Server has the following in its access.log. 192.168.12.127 - - [20/Mar/2008:16:00:28 -0700] "GET /testcase1/app HTTP/1.0" 302 - 192.168.12.127 - - [20/Mar/2008:16:00:28 -0700] "GET /app/ HTTP/1.0" 404 202 192.168.12.127 - - [20/Mar/2008:16:15:31 -0700] "GET /testcase2/app HTTP/1.0" 302 - 192.168.12.127 - - [20/Mar/2008:16:15:31 -0700] "GET /app/ HTTP/1.0" 404 202 On the other hand, if I create two separate VirtualHosts such as the following. NameVirtualHost 192.168.121.214:8080 <VirtualHost 192.168.121.214:8080> ServerName test1 ProxyPreserveHost On ProxyPass /app http://192.168.122.184/app ProxyPassReverse /app http://192.168.122.184/app ProxyHTMLURLMap http://192.168.122.184/app /app ErrorLog c:/temp/test1-error.log </VirtualHost> <VirtualHost 192.168.121.214:8080> ServerName test2 ProxyPreserveHost On ProxyPass /app http://192.168.122.247/app ProxyPassReverse /app http://192.168.122.247/app ProxyHTMLURLMap http://192.168.122.247/app /app ErrorLog c:/temp/test2-error.log </VirtualHost> Now, if I have DNS resolve both test1 and test2 to the same Proxy IP Address (192.168.121.214), and issue http://test1:8080/app, or http://test2:8080/app, everything works fine and the requests go to the right Origin Servers. For success case, the Access Log has: 192.168.12.127 - - [20/Mar/2008:12:58:15 -0700] "GET /app HTTP/1.1" 302 - 192.168.12.127 - - [20/Mar/2008:12:58:15 -0700] "GET /app/goToUserHome.do HTTP/1.1" 200 36175 Note that there is an additional JavaScript, in the response from the Origin Server in both cases - 'wget http://192.168.122.184/app' on the proxy produces the following HTML. <html> <head> <title>Go To Home Page</title> <script language="JavaScript1.2"> function goToHomePage() { location.replace("/app/goToUserHome.do"); } </script> </head> <body onLoad="goToHomePage()"> </body> </html> For some reason, when I have two VirtualHosts, the JavaScript is properly recognized and re-issued by the Proxy. If I have one VirtualHost with two separate path-based ProxyPass, the above GET doesn't happen. Is there something I am missing in the Proxy httpd.config? Do I need some kind of a re-write rule? Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: Nils Jeppe [mailto:nils@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, March 20, 2008 12:46 AM To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Apache reverse-proxy config.

Use NameVirtualHost on the IP (or *) in the main part of your config and assign ServerName 's to each of the virtualhosts. I think this should solve your problem.
