Seems like your rewrite rules are working perfectly! What I am guessing is happening, is that your login.jsp issues a redirect, and that the request to this new location returns the 404. In addition to your rewrite logs, your should take a look in your error and access logs to see if you can find any clue. Another thing you may want to do is to trace all the interactions between the browser and the reverse proxy using something like LiveHTTPHeaders (with Firefox) or HTTPWatch (with IE). That will tell you exactly what is going on.

ProxyRequests On ProxyPass /metso http://mgtpdma3.rau.valmet.com:7003/metso ProxyPassReverse /metso http://mgtpdma3.rau.valmet.com:7003/metso SetEnv proxy-nokeepalive 1 ProxyPreserveHost On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.*\.jsp$)|(.*/servlet/.*)|(.*/workspace/.*)|(.*\.do$) RewriteRule ^/metso/(.*) http://mgtpdma3.rau.valmet.com:7003/metso/$1 [P]. But this returns the http-404 message. Entries in the rewrite.log says 192.168.251.204 - - [06/Jul/2006:13:08:21 +0300] [mgtpdma3.rau.valmet.com/sid#400aeb58][rid#4030d888/initial] (2) init rewrite engine with requested uri /metso/login.jsp 192.168.251.204 - - [06/Jul/2006:13:08:21 +0300] [mgtpdma3.rau.valmet.com/sid#400aeb58][rid#4030d888/initial] (3) applying pattern '^/metso/(.*)' to uri '/metso/login.jsp' 192.168.251.204 - - [06/Jul/2006:13:08:21 +0300] [mgtpdma3.rau.valmet.com/sid#400aeb58][rid#4030d888/initial] (2) rewrite /metso/login.jsp -> http://mgtpdma3.rau.valmet.com:7003/metso/login.jsp 192.168.251.204 - - [06/Jul/2006:13:08:21 +0300] [mgtpdma3.rau.valmet.com/sid#400aeb58][rid#4030d888/initial] (2) forcing proxy-throughput with http://mgtpdma3.rau.valmet.com:7003/metso/login.jsp 192.168.251.204 - - [06/Jul/2006:13:08:21 +0300] [mgtpdma3.rau.valmet.com/sid#400aeb58][rid#4030d888/initial] (1) go-ahead with proxy request proxy:http://mgtpdma3.rau.valmet.com:7003/metso/login.jsp [OK] But the loging page is not shown at all. However it we remove the [P] tag. Then the external redirection works fine. But our requirement is to do the redirection through internal proxy so that end-user does know about the same. httpd -I shows the following output. $ ./httpd -l Compiled in modules: core.c worker.c http_core.c mod_so.c Do we need to have mod_proxy.c as a compiled module for this functionality with apache 2.0.55??? Please help me out.
