I am running Apache 1.3.26 with mod_proxy and am having a interesting problem. A specific site that I connect to with the proxy server is doing a redirect on requests. However, the redirect is not being interpreted properly by the proxy server. If I connect to the same site without using the proxy server, my browser is properly redirected, which is why I am unable to figure out exactly what is happening.
If I make a request of http://www.someserver.com/webpage.html it is supposed to be redirected to http://server1.someserver.com/webpage.html When using the proxy server I get this in my web browser: Date: Fri, 16 Aug 2002 05:17:28 GMT Server: RealPage 2700 Set-Cookie: RealPageID=590675136; expires=Tue, 31-Dec-2002 00:00:00 GMT; path=/; domain=.someserver.com Location: http://server1.someserver.com/webpage.html Content-Type: text/html X-Cache: MISS from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Connection: close And I see this in the log file yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy - - [16/Aug/2002:01:17:40 -0400] "GET http://www.someserver.com/webpage.html HTTP/1.1" 302 179 Any ideas what is happening here? As I said, if I connect directly to the web site without the proxy server in the middle, the redirect works and the correct page is displayed. Also, the web site is not mine and is outside of my control. John
