Actually it's worse than that. But AFAICS simpler to fix. I really, *really* should have fixed it when I fixed the same problem in ProxyPassReverse and friends, in http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi?rev=231355&view=rev The basic problem is putting directives on the server_rec and then hacking them to work inside <Location>. The original bug was with ProxyPassReverse, where multiple <Location>s in a virtualhost would just overwrite each other. Thinking back, at the time I fixed that, I'd just never considered using ProxyPass in <Location>, and didn't realise it was supposed to work! So, any reason not to apply the same fix? -- Nick Kew
