Mod_proxy problems with Hotmail and other sites
Hi folks,
I've got mod_proxy with Apache 1.3.24 on Win2K Server proxying a few
hundred clients, no cacheing.
Most sites are fine, but Hotmail and Yahoo Mail won't let proxied
clients log on - you enter your username and password, it accepts the
username but keeps asking for the password. The error.log reports a 302
error (data requested has a different URL temporarily). It works fine on
Apache 2 so I'm assuming it's an http 1.0 issue. I can't move to 2.0
however as I'm logging the proxy to a MySQL db through mod_perl, which I
can't get going under Apache 2.0.
The proxy is going through our firewall which is NATting the usual
ports. Other cookie-dependent sites work ok under the proxy as do SSL
sites, so I don't think it's anything to do with that. Windows Update
won't work on either Apache.
The thing that's giving me hope is that I can find very few mentions of
this on Google/Deja, leading me to believe that it's something foolish
that I'm doing that can be fixed with a simple line in the config.
Please?
TIA,
Ben

Thanks - I couldn't find any mention of it in the buglist. Any idea when
the next 1.3.2 is due?

This is a known bug with cookie handling in Apache 1.3.24. It will be
fixed in the next version, or you can try the CVS version:
http://cvs.apache.org/snapshots/apache-1.3/
