I'm using Apache 2.4.7 I'm currently running and old Apache with customized software and need to change to using a newer Apache.
How do I parse out the server from the request and send the request to the process running on that server (and fixed port)? Any help is greatly appreciated. Jim Pennington A request can come into an Apache running on one server and the request needs to be sent a process running on a different server. We are using fixed ports and the port in the examples is 1234. The process that should get the request is derived from the sessionid. I need to parse out the server and send the request to the process running on that server. Messages come in with GET or POST and /WebZ/... Somewhere in the message is sessionid=<server>-<1234>-<...>-<...> Some requests might have multiple '?' characters. Some requests might not have any '?' characters. Here are some example requests. GET /WebZ/MEdit?sessionid=server09.prod-1234-kgv44z4b-pl2l93:editsessionid=2:catpage=html/corc/catalogue.html:entitymytemplateName=marc?sessionid=server09.prod-1234-kgv44z4b-pl2l93 HTTP/1.1 GET /WebZ/html/corc/helpredirect.html:sessionid=server02.prod-1234-kgvvyfoc-c7bsf2?/WebZ/html/corc/helpredirect.html:sessionid=server02.prod-1234-kgvvyfoc-c7bsf2?http%3A//www.oclc.org/bibformats/en/fixedfield/dtst.html HTTP/1.1 GET /WebZ/html/catexpress/CatExpressBasicSearch.html:sessionid=server09-1234-kgufwyh9-k6bak2:dbname=WorldCat HTTP/1.1 In my httpd.conf file, I have tried several combinations of RewriteCond, RewriteRule and ProxyPassMatch. The sessionid is typically after the '?' and ProxyPassMatch doesn't find it. The regular expression below will parse out the server and put it into group $4 /(WebZ)/(.*)(.*?sessionid=([^-]+)-1234)(.*)$ For: /WebZ/MEdit?sessionid=server09.prod-1234-kgv44z4b-pl2l93:editsessionid=2:catpage=html/corc/catalogue.html:entitymytemplateName=marc?sessionid=server09.prod-1234-kgv44z4b-pl2l93 HTTP/1.1 We would get: Group 1. 5-9 WebZ Group 2. 10-136 MEdit?sessionid=server09.prod-1234-kgv44z4b-pl2l93:editsessionid=2:catpage=html/corc/catalogue.html:... Group 3. 136-164 sessionid=server09.prod-1234 Group 4. 146-159 server09.prod Group 5. 164-189 -kgv44z4b-pl2l93 HTTP/1.1 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@httpd.apache.org
