I am attempting to take this URL: http://foobar.com/path
and rewrite it to balance on a balancer server. I have a rewrite rule like this: RewriteRule ^/path(.*)$ balancer://path_balancer%{REQUEST_URI} [P,QSA,L] I then have a balancer setup like this: <Proxy balancer://path_balancer> BalancerMember http://192.168.2.77:8001 </Proxy> Of course, I do plan to have more balancer members long term, but for now I am trying to restrict my variables as I troubleshoot. This does not seem to work for me. If I remove the path, it works. Is rewriting to a proxy balancer not supported or buggy in this way? There is more context here that I am omitting, such as the fact that this is running over SSL, but I am hopeful this is enough information that someone can help me troubleshoot. Does anyone have a suggestion for debugging the request as it hits the server? Or, is there a way to provide a request and interactively see the rules apache uses to handle it? Thanks, Chris
