Hello, I've looked through the mod_rewrite and Guide documentation and can't seem find an answer for this, but feel free to point me at TFM to R if I just missed it.
I have an Apache with many VirtualHosts, and I want to setup proxying so that a lightweight frontend Apache with mod_rewrite/mod_proxy proxies Apache::Registry script requests back to a heavyweight backend Apache running on a localhost-only port. I want to simplify my configuration in two ways. I'd prefer not to maintain two sets of VirtualHost configuration data, and I'd like it if the block that proxies .pl files to the backend proxy not be replicated per VirtualHost. The conceptual behavior I want, is for <FilesMatch "\.pl$"> to be proxied by the backend server, and everything else by the frontend. I've tried many combinations which don't work, which I can post if it's relevant... it seems that having a map outside of <VirtualHost> blocks doesn't work (I get a GET /real/path/on/filesystem/to/foo.pl HTTP/1.0 on the backend) and that requests with path_info don't work. Does anybody have a pointer to a setup that looks like this? Thanks in advance!
