* As I cannot alter the backend behaviour Yet, you talk about using mod_substitute and mod_header to alter the server’s behaviour. If the 302 responses are not valid, then hunt down and fix/remove the ‘redirect’ configuration options in either a .htaccess or some other configuration file. Matt.

I am using Apache for proxying a backend server. The backend server may return, in some occaisons, a 302 response code for successful requests. As I cannot alter the backend behavior nor the client's to consider such 302 responses as successful, I am looking for a way to manipulate the response code on Apache. While going through the options in and trying ways to alter data which is sent back to clients I found two: 1. mod_substitute - to manipulate respose body. 2. mod_header - to manipulate respose headers. The problem is that the HTTP Status Line (the very first line returned by apache) cannot be altered by neither of these modules. I was also trying to set the response code in various response headers but none seem to make any affect on the Status Line contents. Does anyone know of a way to manipulate the HTTP Status Line or how to internal process of apache works to determine the Status Line (maybe this way I can cause it to generate a different status line). Thanks, Shmuel Krakower.
