I had this problem, too. I had to add "AllowEncodedSlashes On" to my virtual host config to get proxing working correctly. > > I did not see anything about this in the bug Jira.

Sorry, though, for not documenting/blogging/sharing my fix before. :-/ When I get the chance, I'll publish a slimmed downed and working version of my vhost file that fixes this bug, but until then... try added "AllowEncodedSlashes On" right inside your VirtualHost declaration. cheers, hugs
