Hi, I am trying to use the ProxyPass directive in my apache cofig file to work around the ajax cross-domain policy.
My apache server is hosted behind a corporate firewall. The ProxyPass directive works fine when the remote server resides within the intranet; however, when it points to something outside the intranet, I get a HTTP 503. It seems like the apache server is not using the http_proxy environment variable. I also tried to set it explicitlly in my config file as follows: SetEnv http_proxy ... SetEnv https_proxy ... I still continue to get a 503. I have no problem accessing the remote server from my browser or when doing curl from the shell (since they use the environment's http_proxy). Any solution will be greatly appreciated. Thanks! -Raj.
