Hello, I am experiencing a misbehaviour of apache which seems correlated with the action of mod_proxy_html. Or, most likely, my configuration is faulty.
TL;DR: I have a backend server (backend), a reverse proxy (proxy) and a web browser like firefox or chromium (client). If in (proxy)'s apache2.conf I include mod_proxy_html's directive ProxyHTMLURLMap, (client) ends up with an error that firefox calls "Content Encoding Error" and chromium calls ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED. If I don't use mod_proxy_html, everything's good. == More facts == 0) my system: apache 2.2.22 mod_proxy_html 3.0 1) If I use the cliget firefox addon https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cliget/ to get the curl command line that exactly mimics my firefox's headers, I can retrieve the content without any error (WAT). What I get via curl shows relative URLs correctly rewritten by mod_proxy_html. 2) The proxy_html.conf file I am using is the one provided with the ubuntu package libapache2-mod-proxy-html http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/libapache2-mod-proxy-html 3) Here a diagram of my setup, with all headers involved (sniffed with tcpdump) and the relevant part of apache2.conf: http://i.imgur.com/UQjPf8C.png 4) the same diagram, but w/o usign ProxyHTMLURLMap (and thus relative URLs aren't rewritten) and with all headers updated accordingly: http://i.imgur.com/mRwbmIU.png In this situation Firefox can open the page w/o errors. 5) I tried serving a page not containing URLs that triggers the proxy_html filter, and uncomment the proxy_html relevant configuration: the browser still is unable to access the content. 6) Since I have saved all my tcpdump captures, I could try doing a binary diff of corresponding results for the two different configurations (w/ and w/o proxy_html). I haven't done that yet. Any hint on how I can proceed debugging my issue?
