Just as a follow-up incase anyone was trying to help me. If I change the rewrite rule to send .html and .cgi it fails as well.
If I stop the front-end 'apache' and then change the 'apache_perl' to run on port 80, it serves up the page just fine. It just doesn't work if the front-end proxy is on and 'apache_perl' is the back-end. Adding the logging of the rewrite rule using the following config lines [snip] RewriteLogLevel 1 RewriteLog "| /usr/local/apache/bin/rotatelogs \ /usr/local/apache_perl/logs/r_log 86400" [/snip] will create entries in that log file that look like this... [snip] 68.52.48.147 - - [05/Mar/2004:10:16:23 -0600] [extranet.venzia.com/sid#a0a904c][rid#a0c690c/initial] (1) go-ahead with proxy request proxy:http://127.0.0.1:8080/intranet/www/index.cgi [OK] [/snip] which makes me think that the rewrite is taking place fine. Somehow, when the back-end 'apache_perl' recieves the request something is going wrong and it's not logging it (or at least no where I'm looking) Any help? thanks, Michael Peters Venzia ---------- Original Message ----------- From: "petersm" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "mod_perl list" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Fri, 5 Mar 2004 10:30:28 -0500 Subject: Proxy Config > Greetings, > > Using Fedora Core 1 > Apache 1.3.29 > mod_perl 1.29 > > Aparently I am just not understanding something and would like to ask this > list for some help.
