RE: [users@httpd] mod-rewrite question
Hi,
When I was trying to get it all to work, I had the same problem that
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/students.asp(.*)
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://www.bar.com/$1 [P]
returned a 403 error. The reason is that you are using proxy (look at
the [P]) but you have not installed the proxy mod. Add to httpd.conf the
load proxy module and add proxy module. Then these rules will work.
Regards,
Gunter Verbocht

Subject: [users@httpd] mod-rewrite question
This question is similar to the recent thread related to mod-rewrite and
keeping the original URL.
Based on reading the other thread it sounds like I need to use mod-proxy
but
let me ask anyway to confirm.
Here is what I want
Local site: www.foo.com
Other site: www.bar.com
I want all traffic for www.foo.com with "students.asp" in the url to get
the
content for those pages from www.bar.com with everything in the path
simply
passed on. I prefer to deliver to the client the
www.foo.com/students.asp?xxxx rather than the
www.bar.com/students.asp?xxxx
I have mod-rewrite installed and I am doing some of this sort of thing
locally but not across domains/machines.
My current rewrite rule:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/students.asp(.*)
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://www.bar.com/$1 [P]
The above generates a 403 Forbidden error while a "[R]" or no option all
redirect and display the www.bar.com version of the URL.
Is this doable in mod-rewrite? I potentially will have a couple of more
complex scenarios if I get this working.
Thanks for your help,

Filesystem paths can't be used on webpages.
You can see what is actually being used just by looking at the source of
the webpage in your browser.

I believe they are relative URL's but I am not certain if the path on the
remote is the document root for the virtual domain (IIS server) or the file
system root. I don't have access to the "www.bar.com" server even though it
will be our content.
Thanks for the help anyway.

Sorry, I wasn't reading carefully. ProxyPassReverse only rewrites certain
HTTP headers. It will not touch the html. You need to use relative URLs.

Still does not work.
Even with the "ProxyPassReverse / http://www.bar.com/" value it still does
not get the css (Netscape errors and IE fails to get pictures, etc.)
Thanks for the idea. What additional info would help?

Certainly.
ProxyPassReverse / http://www.bar.com/
will probably do the trick for your example.

Thanks for the reply.
I have enabled the proxy mod but I still have a problem which may require
the use of the full features of mod-proxy.
I get a "foo.css" not found error.
It looks like I need the "ProxyPassReverse".
Is there a way to use the two together?
