Hi,
I have setup apache http server as a reverse proxy server and I am using mod_proxy_html for rewriting the urls. Images load up fine as well as the links. I'm encountering a problem however when I click on a link that calls up a servlet that should display a pdf file. The page that loads is blank ( no error messages displayed). Looking at the proxy log, it is saying that the page contains a non-html content and no filter is set ( which I know is correct ) and viewing the source of the blank page I noticed that the content type is text/html.
Here is an excerpt of my conf file:
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPass /app1/ http://internal.com/app1
ProxyHtmlUrlMap http://internal.com/app1 /app1
<Location /newcontext>
ProxyPassReverse /
SetOutputFilter proxy-html
ProxyHTMLURLMap / /app1
ProxyHTMLURLMap /app1 /app1
RequestHeader unset Accept-Encoding
</Location>
When I tried commenting SetOutputFilter I did manage to load the pdf but the url that was displayed is http://internal.com/app1 which shouldn't be the case.
Any ideas as how to solve this? Thanks. |

| I'm using the version prior to 3.0 in Windows. Is this problem fixed in version 3.0? |

Got answer from the author:
It is most likely an error in the user's observation. mod_proxy_html doesn't touch non-HTML contents, and the message confirms it.
If it persists, look elsewhere in the configuration, perhaps for other filter configuration that the SetOutputFilter overrides. |
