RE: mod_jk: Forwarding URLs containing escaped slashes (e.g. for REST services) fail with syntactical-wrong double-escaping
Dear Markus,
I'm not using Tomcat as backend here. And in addition, this will not help in
case of syntactically wrong URL patterns like '%252F' produced by mod_jk.
thank you, anyway -- maybe emphasizing this option is useful for others here
using Tomcat.

You may want to create setenv.sh in CATALINA_HOME/bin with the following
option:
export
JAVA_OPTS="-Dorg.apache.tomcat.util.buf.UDecoder.ALLOW_ENCODED_SLASH=true"

mod_jk: Forwarding URLs containing escaped slashes (e.g. for REST services) fail with syntactical-wrong double-escaping
Hi all,
I have problems to pass (REST-) URLs containing escaped slashes ('%2F') in path
elements using the Apache httpd and mod_jk to the application server (in
fact not Tomcat, but Wildfy. But this is of no matter, here).
This kind of URL may be accepted by the httpd using the option
'AllowEncodedSlashes=NoDecode'. But then, while using the mode
'ForwardURIProxy' for mod_jk , they are re-encoded in a bad way: As '%252F',
because the percent sign itself is escaped by accident. The result is a
syntactically bad URL which is rejected by the application server.
I already filed this last week as
https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=62459 . Please, may take some
maintainer a look at this?
with greetings
Guido
