I have been working on a reverse proxy problem for a while. I have it

I think ProxyHTMLURLMap will be able to do it and I have determined
that it is doing something on my machine, just not what I want.
The proxy is creating URLs in the form
"http://hostname/application/file";
I need them in the form "http:/hostname/file", where hostname is the
VirtualHost of the reverse proxy.
That's the opposite to the 'usual' configuration, and should work
fine if you just reverse the example rules in the tutorial.
Yep I kind of figuered that out.
I think I understand in its simplest form ProxyHTMLURLMAp matches
from the beginning left to right,
I need it to match for "/application" anywhere in the URL
You could do that with a regexp, but it'll be simpler and run
faster if you just use two simple string matches, one for
"/application" and another for "http://server/application";.
I've tried lots of different combinations in my case none of them seem
to affect the output which is form an application on a Windows server
running IIS. One of the goals is to keep the server away form the
Internet via a reverse proxy.
I' think the proper maps would be
ProxyHTMLURLMap http://applications.mydoamin.com/aplication /
ProxyHTMPURLMap /application /
But that doesn't work, and no matter how I configure the ProxyHTMLURLMap
the error I get is still the same. I think the application is avoiding
the rules somehow.
In any event I've developed a workaround that is ok for now. When I get
a chance I'll study this some more since I don't really understand how
it works just yet and I've gotten myself confused.
