> I would like to ask whether it is possible to enable ProxyPass HTTP directives for a sub-directory of Apache Wicket static site.
> At the moment http://wicket.apache.org/ is completely static, i.e. it consists only of .html, .css and .js files.
> We would like to add reverse proxy directives so that http://wicket.apache.org/examples/7.x proxies an external Apache Tomcat installation that will serve our examples.
> I've played locally with the setup and what is needed to be added to apache2.conf is something like:
> {code}
> ProxyRequests off
> ProxyPass         /examples/7.x/ http://examples7-apachewicket.rhcloud.com/
> <Location /examples/7.x/>
>     ProxyPassReverse  /
> </Location>
> {code}
> I'd not bother Infra team and just use .htaccess but unfortunately Proxy directives are not allowed in .htaccess file.
> So my question is: is it OK to have this proxy setup for our site?
> If YES, then please add a second entry for our 6.x releases:
> {code}
> ProxyRequests off
> ProxyPass         /examples/6.x/ http://examples6-apachewicket.rhcloud.com/
> <Location /examples/6.x/>
>     ProxyPassReverse  /
> </Location>
> {code}
