> What is generating the different responses? We use the Spring Security authentication framework on Tomcat using an APR connector behind Apache.
Protected resources are handled like this for an unauthenticated user: GET /some/protected/resource.html Response: 302 /login.html GET /login.html Response: 200 POST /login.html Response: 302 /some/protected/resource.html This is a pretty standard scenario in authentication and single sign-on frameworks. In the example, /some/protected/resource.html cannot be cached by the client since the same expires/cache-control headers will be included with the 302 response, and Firefox 5 will cache the 302, causing the second request to the resource to again redirect to /login.html. -Michael -----Original Message----- From: Nick Kew [mailto:n...@webthing.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 29, 2011 5:31 PM To: users@httpd.apache.org Subject: Re: [users@httpd] Modifying headers according to response code On Wed, 29 Jun 2011 19:20:26 +0000 Michael Stevens <michael.stev...@planetoutinc.com> wrote: > Hello, > > I'd like to do this: > > Set Expires and Cache-control headers to specific values on a resource when > the response code is 200. > > Set those headers to different values when the response code is XXX (but not > 200). What is generating the different responses? My suggestion: use ErrorDocument, and set your headers in its scope. -- Nick Kew Available for work, contract or permanent. http://www.webthing.com/~nick/cv.html --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
