The following page has been changed by thomaslang:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  Note from Wout Mertens:
  I tried the above, but I had lots of tests fail on Apache 2.2.8/Solaris. When I removed the nocanon directive, less tests failed. I'm not in a position to upgrade Apache just now so I can't test with newer versions.
+ 
  Note from Rune Larsen:
  On linux Apache 2.2.10 you must use nocanon - otherwise many tests fail.
+ 
+ Note from Thomas Lang:
+ I had to remove the trailing slashes on ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse in order to get a request to '/_uuids' give the right response. New conf:
+ ProxyPass / http://localhost:5984 nocanon
+ ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:5984
+ Before this change apache would add an extra slash before every request to a resource beginning with '_', resulting in this: 'GET' //_utils 500
