Re: [users@httpd] (36)File name too long
Thanks for the info. I think the problem is that I am trying to use the
REMOTE_USER in the rewrite for example:
RewriteCond %{LA-U:REMOTE_USER} !^$
Which is later used in the RewriteRule. I just checked and found that
when I remove the LA-U:REMOTE_USER part of the rewrite rule the error
does not occur. This bug report helped me to understand why it was
failing: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45187
I am not quite sure how I can fix my rules though. I understand that
using an LA-U causes a subrequest in order to get the authenticated user
and I believe this is what is causing the failure. (Auth causes a
directory walk?)
Any ideas on how to get the authenticated user for a RewriteRule without
causing a directory walk? I was tossing around the idea of using an env
var or a cookie, but both seem like bad ideas.
Thanks,
Michael

Thanks,
That error message doesn't appear to be from the httpd server itself (ie, that
message doesn't appear anywhere in the source code for trunk, 2.4, 2.2, or
2.0), which leads me to believe that 1) it's in fact from your filesystem, and
2) there's no direct way to fix that in httpd configuration.
As thy why it matters when the file isn't on the filesystem, that's hard to
tell without more context, but I presume that at some point in the process it
is *looking* for the file in the filesystem.
For example, if this RewriteRule is in a .htaccess file, rather than in the
main server config, it did in fact have to navigate to a filesystem directory
before consulting that .htaccess file.

If there is a way to configure mod_proxy to handle the request (i.e., using mod_proxy directives), the filesystem check will be bypassed. -- Born in Roswell... married an alien... http://emptyhammock.com/
