RewriteRule Proxy problems
I have a front-end lightweight Apache proxying to a backend mod_perl
Apache. I am experiencing problems with query strings.
In my lightweight httpd.conf, I have:
RewriteRule ^/(.*)\.asp http://66.33.85.239/$1.asp [p]
If I go to http://www.buildreferrals.com/rotatorstats.asp, it gets proxy'd
correctly.
But if I go to http://www.buildreferrals.com/rotatorstats.asp?login=pmak0
(that's the same URL, but with a query string added), then I get a "404
Not Found" error. The error log says:
[Sun Jul 29 08:10:11 2001] [error] [client 206.173.59.73] File does not
exist: proxy:http://66.33.85.239/rotatorstats.asp?login=pmak0
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? That error message seems strange
because if I paste the http://66.33.85.239/rotatorstats.asp?login=pmak0
URL in my browser it will load. Looking at the logs for 66.33.85.239, it
never even received a request from the frontend server when I got the 404
Not Found.

I just tried it, but I get the same error messages. This is perplexing.
I'll try asking on the mod_perl mailing list. Thanks anyways.

Having never used RewriteRules before, it seems that maybe
http://66.33.85.239/rotatorstats.asp?login=pmak0 didn't match
your rule "RewriteRule ^/(.*)\.asp http://66.33.85.239/$1.asp [p]"
so that it got a proxy error?
Would it help if your rule were:
RewriteRule ^/(.*\.asp(\?.*)?$) http://66.33.85.239/$1
assuming it even supports this regexp syntax?
