CentOS - Jul 2008 - How to Auto Add forward slash "/" when accessing a link/url through ProxyPass

Hi Friends,

I am using Centos 5.2 and using ProxyPass to access applications
running on other servers. Everything is working fine except for one of
the applications I need to auto add forward slash when any user tries
to access that application. For ex

ProxyPass   /testdiary                testdiary.example.com
ProxyPassReverse /testdiary       testdiary.example.com

If somebody access directly testdiary.example.com everything
is coming means the login page but when the same link is accessed
through apache server on which proxypass is running then the login
page does not appear(portal.example.com/testdiary). How can I
auto add "/" when somebody put the url
portal.example.com/testdiary which should first be
converted/redirected to portal.example.com/testdiary (auto
added forward slash).

I have the below lines added in httpd.conf file

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /testdiary
RewriteRule /testdiary(.)$ /testdiary/
ProxyPass /testdiary  testdiary.example.com
ProxyPassReverse /testdiary  testdiary.example.com

Please let me know if you need any other information.

Hi,

It's been long since I don't write Proxy rules, but IIRC you have to
match /s on the left side and on the right side.

Maybe try:

ProxyPass   /testdiary                testdiary.example.com
ProxyPassReverse /testdiary       testdiary.example.com

Or:

ProxyPass   /testdiary/                testdiary.example.com
ProxyPassReverse /testdiary/       testdiary.example.com

I guess the second one is the one you want, but it won't do the
Redirect if you access /testdiary without the ending slash. You don't
need mod_rewrite for that one, a simple RedirectMatch should be enough
(I'm not 100% sure about the syntax though):

RedirectMatch /testdiary$ /testdiary/

Please let us know how that goes for you.

HTH,
Filipe

This is what I do on my systems

RedirectMatch /testdiary$ mysite.example.com/testdiary
