Hi all,

I have problems to pass (REST-) URLs containing escaped slashes ('%2F') in path 
elements using the  Apache httpd  and  mod_jk  to the application server (in 
fact not Tomcat, but Wildfy. But this is of no matter, here).

This kind of URL may be accepted by the httpd using the option 
'AllowEncodedSlashes=NoDecode'. But then, while using the mode 
'ForwardURIProxy' for mod_jk , they are re-encoded in a bad way: As '%252F', 
because the percent sign itself is escaped by accident. The result is a 
syntactically bad URL which is rejected by the application server.

I already filed this last week as  
https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=62459 . Please, may take some 
maintainer a look at this?

with greetings

Guido
