Apache LocationMatch does not work for group
- by dma_k
I would like to configure Apache to proxy mldonkey running at localhost. Initially I have used the following configuration:
<IfModule mod_proxy.c>
<LocationMatch /(mldonkey|bittorrent)/>
ProxyPass http://localhost:4080/
ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:4080/
</LocationMatch>
</IfModule>
and it didn't worked! error.log reads [error] [client 192.168.1.1] File does not exist: /var/www/mldonkey which means that Apache does not intersect the URL.
However, when I change the regexp to following:
<LocationMatch /mldonkey/>
it started to work (i.e. mod_proxy functions OK, more over all ). I have tried the following alternatives:
<LocationMatch ^/(mldonkey|bittorrent)/>
<LocationMatch ^/(mldonkey|bittorrent)/.*>
<LocationMatch ^/(mldonkey|bittorrent)>
<LocationMatch /(mldonkey|bittorrent)>
<LocationMatch "^/(mldonkey|bittorrent)/">
<LocationMatch "/(mldonkey|bittorrent)">
<LocationMatch "/(mldonkey)">
<LocationMatch "/(mldonkey)/">
with no positive result. I am stuck. Please give me a hint where to look at.
P.S. Apache Server 2.2.19.
P.P.S. Would be happy if <LocationMatch> would work, without using the heavy artillery of mod_rewrite.
