Actually the slashes do match, but the Location: response field of my WebDAV service does omit the port number in case it is 80, and therefore the host element of the URI does not match exactly the ProxyPass(Reverse) directives: ProxyPass / http://10.11.0.1:80/ ProxyPassReverse / http://10.11.0.1:80/ Now, I changed the virtual host settings in Apache: ProxyPass / http://10.11.0.1/ ProxyPassReverse / http://10.11.0.1/ Then I restarted Apache and the Windows WebDAV client started to work again. I still have no idea, why it worked at the end of December last year. > With regards to Webdav you should keep in mind that absolute URL's are not > only passed in the Location header but also in the request / response body > for certain methods like MOVE or COPY.

Yes, I saw this also when I investigated my present issue. The WebDAV service in question is completely programmed by me in plain C, and so I am free to use for the host part of the absolute URI the content of the X-Forwarded-Host request header field. I need to do some further tests, but it should not be too difficult. Thank you so much for your helpful responses. Sorry again for posting something as a bug, which could be easily resolved by changing the setup. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: bugs-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: bugs-h...@httpd.apache.org
