ProxyPass and Alias
Hello,
It seems that reverse mappings have higher priority than aliases.
I have this setup:
Alias /home/help "c:/help"
ProxyPass /home http://my.host.com/
ProxyPassReverse /home http://my.host.com/
The alias is ignored, '/home/help' is mapped to remote
'http://my.host.com/help' instead of aliased local directory.
I am running Apache 1.3.29 on Windows, is there anything I can do to fix
this?
Thanks,
Gael

Thanks a lot Graham, it's a very good incentive to upgrade to v2.

This is true.

Apache v2 has an option to not reverse proxy parts of the URL space,
like so:
ProxyPass http://backendurl/home/help !
This should hopefully fix your problem.
