Hi,

I have a local cache (mod_disk_cache) of map tiles from OpenStreetMap
on my web server. My apache configuration pulls the tiles from
tile.openstreetmap.org using the following proxy settings:

ProxyPass /osmtiles/ http://tile.openstreetmap.org/
ProxyPassReverse /osmtiles/ http://tile.openstreetmap.org/

tile.openstreetmap.org sets a very short Expires header on its tiles
(1 hour). I would like to lengthen the Expires to 1 week from access
date. Theoretically I can do this with mod_expires as follows:

<Location /osmtiles>
<IfModule mod_expires.c>
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 1 week"
</IfModule>
</Location>


However,


wget -S http://newhanoian.xemzi.com/osmtiles/13/6503/3605.png

I've searched a fair bit on this, and found a patch from AllAfrica.com
that adds directives to explicitly change headers on proxied content,
but I'd rather not maintain a patched apache if possible.
Other than that I found a 5-year-old bug that claims to be fixed.

Is anyone else using this combination, and successfully?

TIA,

Tom
