What I think is happening is this:
1) Wicket says: redirect to /web/xxxx2) Tocmat makes the url absolute by prepending the virtual host. Since you have ProxyPreserveHost on, tomcat sees the virtual host as "localhost" and NOT "localhost:8080", and returns http://localhost/web/xxx as the new lcoation. 3) Apache mod_proxy does NOT reverse proxy the url, because it does not have the :8080 on it and does not match your rule.
If you remove the ProxyPreserveHost on, tomcat will return http://localhost:8080/web/xxxxx as the redirect location and Apache will reverse proxy it.
The only downside of this is that your wicket app will not know the REAL virtual host, and so automatically generated absolute URL's (for example in emails) will be wrong.

Hi, Jeremy Levy wrote:I have been having trouble with this for a couple of months, it seems that redirects in Wicket 1.3.x seem to be writing out the URL incorrectly in ourset up. We are running JBoss 4.2 with embedded Tomcat 5.5 using Apache/2.2.4 with mod_proxy. The Tomcat URL for the application is http://localhost:8080/web/ The Apache URL for the application is http://localhost For the most part the site works well when accessed via Apache (andperfectly directly via Tomcat), except on links/urls that involve (from whatI can tell) a redirect from Wicket. These redirect the users browser to /web/xxxx which shouldn't happen from infront of the proxy.From what I can tell your mod_proxy config looks correct, you could check the log to see what it's doing. But Wicket redirecting you to /web/xxxx is perfectly fine, as far as Wicket is concerned, that's where the site is at! It seems that mod_proxy is not properly reverse proxying the redirect...Regards, SebastiaanExamples of this are: 1. Form submits (they go through, but the next page is requested with the /web in the url) 2. Redirects from Application.getHomePage() 3. Any use of RestartResponseAtInterceptPageException 4. setResponsePage(MyPage.class) inside of an Link.onClick(BookmarkablePageLink works fine to the same page) Further evidence that this is a bug is that if I set my application to IRequestCycleSettings.ONE_PASS_RENDER everything works perfectly but with both IRequestCycleSettings.REDIRECT_TO_BUFFER and IRequestCycleSettings.REDIRECT_TO_RENDER it fails. Our mod_proxy / virtualhost configuration: <VirtualHost *> ServerAdmin [EMAIL PROTECTED] ServerAlias localhost ServerSignature On DocumentRoot "/var/www" ProxyRequests Off <Proxy *> Order deny,allow Allow from all </Proxy> RewriteEngine on RewriteLog "/var/log/apache2/rewrite.log" RewriteLogLevel 2 ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080/web/ ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080/web/ ProxyPassReverseCookiePath /web / ProxyPreserveHost On ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log LogLevel warn </VirtualHost>I'm not 100% sure that the mod_proxy configuration is correct, but I've read all the articles on this list about it as well as the wiki page and have runout of ideas to mess with. Any help is appreciated. Jeremy
