[users@httpd] mod_proxy and unwanted decoding of URLs (related to bug 15207)

[Robert Jaeschke <ja...@cs.uni-kassel.de>]

Hello,

I'm using Apache (2.0.59) and mod_proxy as reverse proxy and want the
remote server pass URLs like

http://foo.com/bar/black%26white

Unfortunately, when using mod_proxy with ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse,
this URL is rewritten to

http://foo.com/bar/black&white

which is bad (since on the remote server it is rewritten to
http://foo.com/bar?q=black&white instead of
http://foo.com/bar?q=black%26white - you see the problem?)

So how can I advise mod_proxy to not touch my URLs and just pass them
as they are?


I think this is closely related to this Bug:
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15207
There Zvi Har'El says, that behaviour seems to be OK. Is there a way to
prevent it?


Thanks a lot,


Robert Jäschke
