Paul,
I see nothing wrong with the url_regex you're using, it should work. Try
enabling debug in records.config with a debug string of "parent_select".
Then run you're test and look to see if the url_regex line matches. You'll
see something like this in traffic.out:
[Dec 20 16:20:48.271] Server {0x2aff9d17f700} DEBUG:
<ParentSelection.cc:701 (UpdateMatch)> (parent_select) Matched with
0x13c3db8 parent node from line 4
[Dec 20 16:22:16.064] Server {0x2ba96742a700} DEBUG:
<ParentSelection.cc:701 (UpdateMatch)> (parent_select) Matched with
0x1dedd58 parent node from line 5
You may see multiple matches. The first match is used, smaller line number.
regards
John
