Topic: Issue when adding a client uri context in httpd.conf

[fmwsvc]

We are facing an issue when adding a client uri context in httpd.conf

we are migrating iplanet to apache
source OS version: Oracle Solaris on SPARC (64-bit) version 10
Source web server: iPlanet web server 6.1.12

Target OS version: OEL 6.0
Target web server: Apache 2.2.15

in iPlanet context is like this:
--------------------------------
PathCheck fn="find-index" index-names="index.html,home.html,index.jsp"
ObjectType fn="type-by-extension"
ObjectType fn="force-type" type="text/plain"
<Client uri=/XXX/*>
Service fn="wl_proxy" WebLogicCluster="weblogic_cluster_1" Idempotent="OFF" Debug="OFF" DebugConfigInfo="OFF" WLSocketTimeoutSecs="1800" WLIOTimeOutSecs="1800" DynamicServerList="OFF"
</Client>
<Client uri=/xxxxxx/*>
Service fn="wl_proxy" WebLogicCluster="weblogic_cluster_2" Idempotent="OFF" Debug="OFF" DebugConfigInfo="OFF" WLSocketTimeoutSecs="50" WLIOTimeOutSecs="1800"
</Client>
Service method="(GET|HEAD)" type="magnus-internal/imagemap" fn="imagemap"
Service method="(GET|HEAD)" type="magnus-internal/directory" fn="send-error" path="index.html"
Service method="(GET|HEAD|POST)" type="*~magnus-internal/*" fn="send-file"
Error fn="error-j2ee"
Output fn="set-variable" insert-srvhdrs="X-Frame-Options:SAMEORIGIN"
Output fn="insert-filter" filter="http-compression" type="text/*" vary="on" compression-level="1"


In Apache we are trying the context like this:
----------------------------------------------
<Location /XXX/*>
SetHandler weblogic-handler
WebLogicCluster weblogic_jvms_in_cluster_1
Idempotent OFF
Debug OFF
DebugConfigInfo OFF
WLSocketTimeoutSecs 1800
WLIOTimeOutSecs 1800
DynamicServerList OFF
</Location>

if any one face this issue, please let me know the steps to resolve

In apache config you can use an asteric ( * ) as a place holder in Location. Everything below that location inherits the config. If that doesn't work for you you might work with LocationMatch
