Hi list, I have a PerlAccessHandler which needs a copy of the POST data from the client in order to perform some validation. If the POST data is valid, the request is passed to mod_proxy which sends it to the backend server (filter returns Apache2::Const::OK) If the POST data is invalid, it returns Apache2::Const::FORBIDDEN.
My PerlAccessHandler gets the POST by reading the bucket brigades directly. However, when the data is read, POST request body is no longer available to mod_proxy which basically forwards only the headers and the query to the backend server. Originially, my PerlAccessHandler added an input filter (via $r->add_input_filter) which went thru the POST data (using the streaming API). In that scenario, mod_proxy gets the entire POST request body if my input filter returned Apache2::Const::OK. However, when it returned Apache2::Const::FORBIDDEN (the POST data was invalid) mod_proxy gives me an error: Unknown error: 404: proxy: prefetch request body failed This didn't happend in Apache 2.0.54 but started in 2.0.55 which I'm currently using together with mod_perl 2.0.2 (static build). Any pointers on what I'm doing wrong? Thanks, /haver
