I am using mod_proxy_balancer to balance Mongrels in localhost. I am
putting lines like

the application layout. I would prefer to be able to simply say:
if file exists
let Apache send it
otherwise
ProxyPass to Mongrel
ProxyPassReverse
end
Is that possible?
Yes, with mod_rewrite. Something like
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond /your/docroot/%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.+) http://mongrel/$1 [P,L]
ProxyPassReverse / http://mongrel/
Use the RewriteLog to debug.
But I wouldn't really recommend this. It can be a fragile
configuration, and it will require local filesystem access on every
request, which will be slow for a busy server.
