SOLVED -- RE: Problems with mod_jk and Apache SetHandler

[Nathan Christiansen <Na...@tni.com>]

I am posting the solution so that someone else can benefit from my work.

The problem was solved by wrapping the <FilesMatch...> directive in a <DirectoryMatch...> directive as follows:

# Exclude the Tomcat webapps directory from the Mason handler
<DirectoryMatch !"/var/tomcat4/webapps/">
  <FilesMatch  "\.html*$|\.csv$|\.txt$|^[^\.]*$">
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlHandler Mason::Site::Redesign
    PerlLogHandler Mason::Site::Redesign->loghandler
  </FilesMatch>
</DirectoryMatch>


It is interesting that Apache is not forwarding the request to Tomcat after the Mason handler declines the request.

Is this a bug in Apache or in the mod_jk connector? 

Where do I submit the bug report?

The http.conf file includes the following directives for the Mason handler:

  <FilesMatch  "\.html*$|\.csv$|\.txt$|^[^\.]*$">
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlHandler Mason::Site::Redesign
    PerlLogHandler Mason::Site::Redesign->loghandler
  </FilesMatch>
