Hi Jillian.

You wanted the Catalyst list, not the dev list - the dev list is for the 
development of Catalyst itself :)

This is as URIs in your form are being generated as http://, not https://

You want:

RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-HTTPS ON

And also this setting to get Plack::Middleware::ReverseProxy loaded (see the 
source code for that for the why I think you need the other header)

Yes! You can do that quite easily :)

If you make a controller responsible for those paths, then you can just use the 
static file plugin to serve them.. E.g.

package MyApp::Controller::BigData;
use Moose;
use namespace::autoclean;

BEGIN { extends 'Catalyst::Controller' }

sub bigdata: Chained('/') Args {
    my ($self, $c, @path) = @_;
    # This method comes from Catalyst::Plugin::Static::Simple
    $c->serve_static_file('/data/share/web_public/bigdata/' . join('/', @path));
}

I've just mashed this out on the bus - so debugging/fixing will surely be 
needed - but something fairly close to this should work!

Good luck! If you're still struggling then hopping on irc and asking for help 
could be your best (fastest) way to resolve.
