502 is bad gateway, which means that apache and the back-end server have
got into a protocol argument. Usually this is due to a bad response from
the back-end (as your log entries indicate). Why do you think apache is
the problem?

Subject: [us...@httpd] mod_proxy issue - intermittent 502
response
Hi,
I'm running Apache/2.0.52 as a reverse proxy on a RHE4 box, the
backend app server is on a separate machine again RHE4, running
Apache/2.0.52 and mod_perl 1.99_16.
There are intermittent 502 responses being generated by the
proxy although a page refresh generally resolves the issue, we are
trying to get a configuration of 2 RP boxes in front of 3 mod_perl app
servers into production but will need to understand / resolve the issue
of these intermittent 502 responses first.

Can someone shed further light on what the problem is and how to
resolve it pls, I'm happy to send virtual host confs if someone wishes
to dig little deeper. Note at this point I'm using mod_rewrite [P] to
proxy the requests to the app server rather than using ProxyPass as we
have many rewrites in the conf.
I've googled around and have seen that others have observed
similar scenarios when using this setup in Apache 2.0 but have not seen
anything specific about a resolution or path to resolution.
Your help gratefully appreciated.
Kind regards,
Cris
