hi
I'm trying to cache dynamically generated content using an Apache 2.2
reverse proxy.
Apache proxies content coming from Tomcat through AJP protocol.
For some reason mod_cache determines that cacheable content is not fresh
and refetches the content
though the application sets the Expires and Cache-Control HTTP response
headers (see below).
I'd like to be able to always cache cacheable pages for a certain period
of time without any further freshness validation
and force non-cacheable pages to be excluded from caching.
How should I set the response headers and configure mod_cache in order
to do that?
