[users@httpd] mod_rewrite bug/by design with mod_mem_cache cached files?
Hi,
I'm using apache 2.2.9 with mod_mem_cache to cache some javascript
files, which is working fine.
Today, I added a rewrite rule to forbid access (403) to everything in a
virtualhost based on the Opera browser, which obviously included the
javascript files.
Problem is, the cached files in memory weren't getting forbidden, yet
everything non-cached was.
If I turn off mod_mem_cache, everything gets forbidden as it should.
Is there either a bug in the rewrite or caching modules that is allowing
this rule to get circumvented? Is it by design? Am I messing up my
config?
Here's what I have in my virtualhost config..
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^.*(opera).*$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [F,L]
<IfModule mod_cache.c>
CacheDefaultExpire 300
CacheEnable mem /js
CacheEnable mem /images
<IfModule mod_mem_cache.c>
CacheIgnoreQueryString On
MCacheRemovalAlgorithm LRU
MCacheMaxObjectCount 100
MCacheMaxObjectSize 150000
MCacheMinObjectSize 10
MCacheSize 10240
</IfModule>
</IfModule>
Here are sample back-to-back log entries (note, last parameter in log
line is %{Age}o"

top of http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_cache.html :
This module should be used with care and can be used to circumvent
Allow and Deny directives. You should not enable caching for any
content to which you wish to limit access by client host name, address
or environment variable.
Once the cache is on, it gets served so early that these modules don't
get to run.
