Hi all,

I decided to force HTTPD to remove the Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate from the request, using:

RequestHeader unset Accept-Encoding

Now the response is properly processed by HTTPD. So it's likely an issue with one or both of:

Content-Encoding: gzip
Transfer-Encoding: chunked

Is this a known limitation?

Regards, Maarten

Hi all,

Apache HTTPD 2.4.34 on Windows 10 downloaded from Apache Haus.

I'm trying to move a corporate application behind a reverse proxy. In
the process, I need to move the path this application is published on, eg:

/webapp1 --> /suite/webapp1

"webapp1" contains a specific JSP that returns an HTML page with a lot
of JavaScript inside, which hardcodes an absolute path "/service1". I
need to move that one as well to under the external "/suite/service1" path.

The GET /webapp1/the.jsp request has the following headers:

     GET /webapp1/the.jsp HTTP/1.1
     Accept: image/gif, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg,
application/x-ms-application, application/xaml+xml,
application/x-ms-xbap, */*
     Referer: <redacted>
     Accept-Language: en-US
     User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 10.0;
WOW64; Trident/7.0; Touch; .NET4.0C; .NET4.0E; Tablet PC 2.0)
     Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
     Host: <redacted>
     Connection: Keep-Alive
     Cookie: JSESSIONID=24B3D3B40235B8E889A5F019081AAB41

The response (non-proxied) has the following headers

     HTTP/1.1 200
     Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000;includeSubDomains
     X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN
     X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
     X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block
     Content-Type: text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1
     Transfer-Encoding: chunked
     Content-Encoding: gzip
     Vary: Accept-Encoding
     Date: Tue, 04 Sep 2018 06:52:12 GMT
     Server: <redacted>

I've set up the following in httpd.conf:

     FilterDeclare INFLATE_HTML CONTENT_SET
     FilterProvider INFLATE_HTML INFLATE "%{CONTENT_TYPE} =~ m|^text/html|"
     FilterProtocol INFLATE_HTML change=yes
     FilterTrace INFLATE_HTML 1

     FilterDeclare DEFLATE_HTML
     FilterProvider DEFLATE_HTML DEFLATE "%{CONTENT_TYPE} =~ m|^text/html|"
     FilterProtocol DEFLATE_HTML change=yes
     FilterTrace DEFLATE_HTML 1

     FilterDeclare SUBST_HTML
    FilterProvider SUBST_HTML SUBSTITUTE "%{CONTENT_TYPE} =~ m|^text/html|"
     FilterTrace SUBST_HTML 1

     <Location "/suite/webapp1/the.jsp">
         FilterChain +INFLATE_HTML +SUBST_HTML +DEFLATE_HTML

         ProxyPass ${internal}/webapp1/the.jsp
         ProxyPassReverse ${internal}/webapp1/the.jsp

         Substitute s|/service1|/suite/service1|n
     </Location>

This doesn't work. I can see the request being forwarded to the internal
application server, which executes successfully and responds with 200,
but something inside HTTPD doesn't work, and it ends up at the browser
with a 504 and no data (looking at this with Fiddler).

The HTTPD error.log file contains:

(this might contain a few lines related to other requests as well).

I tried as well with "AddOutputFilterByType INFLATE:SUBSTITUTE:DEFLATE
text.html", doesn't work either.

Does anybody have any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Regards, Maarten
