[jira] [Commented] (INFRA-10222) ProxyPass for Wicket static site sub-directory

["Martin Grigorov (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-10222?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14962243#comment-14962243 ] 

Martin Grigorov commented on INFRA-10222:
-----------------------------------------

I've changed the priority to Blocker hoping that someone will see that ticket sooner.
If the proposed change could not be approved by Infra then just tell us that it is not possible and close the ticket. 
If the change will be implemented when Infra has more time then please tell us and we will wait more.
But waiting almost 2 months for any answer is not good.

> 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}
