ProxyRewrite configuration
The problem was solved when I set the Apache Servername parameter to the IP
address of the Proxy Server.
But I don't understand why the ProxyRewrite module doen't change the URL to
what we want. It changes it only to "/".
Thanks,

Assunto:ProxyRewrite configuration
I'm having problem with the ProxyRewrite configuration. My enviroment is:
Internal Site: http://a.a.a.a/site
External Site (The proxy server): http://b.b.b.b/site
I'd like to configure a Reverse Proxy so that all resquests to
http://b.b.b.b/site would be redirected to http://a.a.a.a/site.
So first I tried the Apache module mod_proxy with the configuration at the
httpd.conf.
---
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPass /site http://a.a.a.a/site
ProxyPassReverse /site http://b.b.b.b/site
Everything worked fine. But the problem was with the embedded URLs. The mod_proxy
doen't change them.
So that's why I'm trying to use the ProxyRewrite module.
I put the following lines at the end of the httpd.conf:
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::ProxyRewrite
PerlSetVar ProxyTo http://a.a.a.a/site
PerlSetVar ProxyAuthInfo "BASIC aGb2c3ewenQ6amF4szzmY3b="
PerlSetVar ProxyAuthRedirect Off
PerlSetVar ProxyRewrite "http://a.a.a.a/ => /"
--
What I see is that all the embedded URLs that begin with "http://a.a.a.a/"; are changed
to "/".
So the links works well but the redirects that I have in my CGI scripts doesn't work.
The server don't find the page.
Exemple of redirect on my CGI scripts written with perl:
print redirect("http://a.a.a.a/site/cgi-bin/.cgi";);
As I don't have a DNS, I tried to change the line:
PerlSetVar ProxyRewrite "http://a.a.a.a/ => /"
To:
PerlSetVar ProxyRewrite "http://a.a.a.a/ => http://b.b.b.b/";
But the embedded URLs are still changed to "/". I can't understand.
Can anyone help me? I'd be very grateful.
I think that my problem is very simple. I'd like to configure a Reverse Proxy that
changes the embedded URLs too, not only the Location URL.
Thank you very much.

RE: ProxyRewrite configuration
I've already tried without the domain name/IP and I didn't have success.
I don't use domain name/IP on my scripts. I did it only on the scripts that
I want to redirect with the reverse proxy, as I was having problems whith
the embedded URLs.
Thanks for yuor help.

This seems to be more of a general apache thing. I try never to use the
domain name/IP anywhere that isn't totally necessary. So, instead of:
print redirect("http://a.a.a.a/site/cgi-bin/.cgi";);
Why not:
print redirect("/site/cgi-bin/.cgi");
This way, there is no need to hardcode the domain/IP information
