List: Makefile.mail, Makefile.push |
All lines in these Makefiles are shifted to the left margin, which won't work for
Makefiles--they need tab indents following a target.
E.g., not:
aliases.db: aliases
newaliases
SHOULD BE:
aliases.db: aliases
<TAB>newaliases

Center of page (VirtualHost configuration snippet) |
The ProxyPassReverse directive doesn't (yet) support environment variables.
AUTHOR: This is correct. Setting an environment variable within a
ProxyPassReverse directive doesn't have the intended effect. It
doesn't interpolate the variable, completely breaking the reverse
proxy. Restarting Apache with this directive in place doesn't even
throw any warnings. Evidently, environment variables are only used
with the following directives:
BrowserMatch
BrowserMatchNoCase
PassEnv
RewriteRule
SetEnv
SetEnvIf
SetEnvIfNoCase
UnsetEnv
This means that any redirects handed out by the back-end servers in the
example don't get rewritten properly. Comment out the ProxyPassReverse
line, and tell the fine folks at Apache just how useful environment
variables would be in ProxyPassReverse!
As a (horrible) workaround, you can list multiple ProxyPassReverse
lines in a single VirtualHost entry, but this defeats the whole purpose
of an automated proxy. The rest of the Hack still works unless
back-end servers hand back redirects to themselves. They should use
external, fully qualified redirects to avoid this problem.
