As usual, mileage varies. I didn't test the case of a proxypass at server level with a balancer there as well... here is my config: BalancerInherit Off <Proxy balancer://mycluster> BalancerMember https://127.0.0.1:4433 route=1 </Proxy> ProxyPass /proxy/ balancer://mycluster/ Listen 192.168.0.103:80 <VirtualHost 192.168.0.103:80> ... ProxyPass /proxy2/ balancer://mycluster/ </VirtualHost> Attempts to hit /proxy/ on that vhost work every time (with BalancerInherit Off). Attempts to hit /proxy2/ return a 503 and "AH01171: balancer://mycluster: No workers in balancer". I'd say that the former is definitely unexpected but the latter is fairly reasonable. There was a ProxyPassInherit as part of the original patch... maybe that needs to be revisited? -- Daniel Ruggeri
