[users@httpd] mod_proxy_ajp & static content

I've seen a few posts re: this topic, but don't quite get the solution...

I'm trying to use mod_proxy_ajp to pass only dynamic content to the servlet
engine (*.jsp), while allowing Apache to serve static content.  the catch,
of course, is that the URL has to be the same for both.

So,

http://myserver/myapp/my.jsp -> route to Tomcat
http://myserver/myapp/my.gif -> serve via Apache

This is quite easy to accomplish using mod_jk, but Apache 2.2 seems to
prefer mod_proxy_ajp.

I'm not an Apache expert, and could really benefit from an example,
especially if mod_rewrite comes into the picture as part of the solution.

Also, assuming there is some magic to make this work, will it perform as
well as mod_jk?

Got it working.  Here's how I did it:

<Directory "/foo/bar">
    Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

Alias /bar "/foo/bar"

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/bar/(.*)\.jsp$ ajp://127.0.0.1:45002/bar/$1.jsp [P]
RewriteRule ^/bar/(.*)\.jsv$ ajp://127.0.0.1:45002/bar/$1.jsv [P]
RewriteRule ^/bar/(.*)\.jsw$ ajp://127.0.0.1:45002/bar/$1.jsw [P]

When I try to insert a ProxyPass directive inside a LocationMatch, Apache
fails to start - syntax error.

I'm really hoping for an example, here.  I'm wading through the doc, but am
not coming up with a solution.

Look up <LocationMatch> in TFM.

This looks like something that should be in the FAQ.
