> I don't get it, I must be missing something. Any clue, please? You're possibly in a situation where your rewrite rule is matching against subsequent requests, causing a loop. For example:- 1. You make a request to /something/ which is proxied by your rule to http://www.mysite.es/something/ 2. The back-end server send a 301 redirect to http://www.mysite.es/something/public/index.asp 3. The client browser sends a request to http://www.mysite.es/something/public/index.asp, which is the picked up by your rule and internally rewritten and proxied to http://www.mysite.es/something/something/public/index.asp. And this continues. I think there's probably a better way to do what you want but I'm not sure exactly what it is you're trying to do. As other posters have suggested, it might involve using the ProxyPass directive. Hope that helps.
