I have updated Darrell May's proxypass contrib. I have tested with SME 5.6,
successfully. I believe all other versions will probably work alright as
well.
I made a pretty small change to the httpd.conf template fragment
VirtualDomains/50ProxyPass. In the rpm, this file is located at
RPM-SOURCE-PATH/opt/proxypass/SME/5.5/50ProxyPass.
Here is the entire file:
<START FILE>
{
tie my %domains, 'esmith::config', '/home/e-smith/domains';
my $target = db_get_prop(\%domains, "$virtualHost", "ProxyTarget") || "";
if ("$target" ne "")
{
$result .= "\n";
$result .= " #-----------------------------------\n";
$result .= " # Added to ProxyPass virtual domain \n";
$result .= " #-----------------------------------\n";
$result .= "\n";
$result .= " ProxyPass\t/\t$target\n";
$result .= " ProxyPassReverse\t/\t$target\n";
$result .= "\n";
$result .= "\ \n";
}
}
</END FILE>
The original did not include the line that "ties" %domains to the domains
config db (line 2). In earlier versions, I'm sure this was done earlier in
the "expand-template" process. But, since the newer versions are using more
wild cards for the apache config (All aliases seem to be built around
0.0.0.0 and the port number, rather than specific IP's as in previous
releases.)
So, the problem was occurring because the db_get_prop was not returning a
value. As I said above, I believe this fix will work for SME 5.5 and 5.6.
The 5.1.2 servers actually get a different 50ProxyPass file, which I did not
alter.
Here's the url (noarch and src rpms):

Once a few people have posted results, I think it should probably be moved
back to Darrell's contrib area on contribs.org.
Darrell, as I'm still new to creating RPM's and posting contribs based on
others work, I believe I updated the .spec file appropriately. I
incremented the release number, changed the packager to myself made a minor
addition to the description, and added a changelog entry. If I did or
didn't do something that I should have, please let me know so I don't
duplicate the error in the future.
Feedback welcome, of course.
Later,
Abe
