How to set mod_proxy to serve some files while others to be served by apache

I have enabled mod proxy to serve my jsp and servlets and it seem to work fine. So if i hit localhost, it takes request to tomcat and executes it. What is want is that servlets and jsp are forwarded to tomcat while php is handled by apache. Both JSP/Servlets and PHP files are in the same folder and I need to make a call from JSP?Servlet to PHP or may be vice versa as well. Now the problem is that PHP is also forwarded to tomcat it seems if I use following pattern -

ProxyPass /auto http://serv.corp.com:8080/auto/

All JSP/Servlets and PHP files are inside auto folder which is in webapps folder.

Kindly help me to route static content i.e. PHP to apache.

To server static content by Apache and remain files by appserver (jboss in my case)..

httpd.conf of Apache should look as:--

DocumentRoot   /usr/local/apache2/htdocs

ProxyPass   /   !

ProxyPass   /  https://www.example.com:8443/

ProxyPassReverse  /  https://www.example.com:8443/

here for example /logo.gif will be served directly by Apache from the /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/logo.gif file.

And everything else will be served by appserver.

Hope it will be useful

You want to use ProxyPassMatch rather than ProxyPass. Something like (untested)

ProxyPassMatch ^/(.*\.php)$ !
