I will assume that you are using Apache 2.0 or newer. In that case, in addition 
to mod_proxy, you need to include the mod_proxy_http module.

Subject: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ProxyPass does not work with hostnames only IP's. 
(mod_proxyApache 1.3)

Hi!

I'm using OpenBSD 3.8 default install with mod_proxy enabled. I use ProxyPass 
in virtual host directives with success. Example:

<VirtualHost 10.5.5.20>
    ServerName www.foo.org
    ProxyPass / http://172.16.0.5/
    ProxyPassReverse / http://172.16.0.5/
    <Location />
       Order deny,allow
       Allow from all
    </Location>
</VirtualHost>

...which works fine! The problem occurs when I want to use a hostname instead 
of an IP, e.g.:

ProxyPass / http://intranet.foo.org/
ProxyPassReverse / http://intranet.foo.org/

All I get is a "500 Proxy Error" page:
-------------------------------------------------
Proxy Error
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /.

Reason: Host not found
-------------------------------------------------

Every page I've read seems to indicate you can use hostnames in ProxyPass 
directive. The proxy can resolve "intranet.foo.org" and access the webpage at 
that address just fine. It simply wont proxy to it!

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Patrick Halimee
