is mod_ext_filter supposed to work with mod_proxy?

Does anyone know if ext_filter should work when using apache as a
proxy? I'm trying to add some content to the html body of content
served by the proxy, but it doesn't seem to be working. Has anyone
tried this? I think that my configuration is correct, at least for the
locally hosted website because i see the additional content. Any help
would be greatly appreciated.

Configuration:
Apache/2.2.11
Ubuntu/2.6.28-11-server

Regards,

Marcos

They should work fine together.

Re: is mod_ext_filter supposed to work with mod_proxy?

Hi Eric, thanks for the quick response. So then I must be doing
something wrong. Does this look right? I'm testing a simple filter
that rewrites some text. Through the proxy, this html
(http://skyblender.com/index.html) should show two "arial" instead of
just one.

--- proxy.conf ----

ExtFilterDefine my-filter mode=3Doutput intype=3Dtext/html cmd=3D"/bin/sed
s/verdana/arial/g"


ProxyRequests On

AddDefaultCharset off
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
SetOutputFilter my-filter

ProxyVia Off

No time to play with it here, but can you confirm that
SetOutputFilter works in a Proxy block? You can also turn on extra
extfilter debugging.

Hi Eric,

I did a full stop and start of apache instead of restart. It works! Thanks!

Re: is mod_ext_filter supposed to work with mod_proxy?

Hi Eric,

Sorry. I mispoke. The filter is working, but it seems to be ignoring
the html content. I'm using intype=3Dtext/html.

Regards,

Marcos

Re: is mod_ext_filter supposed to work with mod_proxy?

Hi,

I had to create two filters, one for text/html and one for text/plain
and use SetOutputFilter for both. :)

Thanks!
