Re: Apache configuration not working

It just so happens that I had found that same thread when I was doing my own searching. I was trying to avoid using a regular expression since I'll have to do more research to figure that out. I have used a regular expression before, but it has been awhile. Off to search more about regular expressions.

Most likely need to use a Regular Expression instead of a*.

Hi,

I'm trying to use a wildcard character in my <Location> directive and it doesn't seem to work. According the documentation, I should be able to use an * to match any sequence of characters. So, I tried the following:

<Location "/Get*">
SetEnv QIBM_CGI_LIBRARY_LIST "MYLIB1;MYLIB2;MYLIB3"
</Location>

My URL would look something like http://mysystem.everence.com:1000/GetMyData/xml?parm1=12345. It does not utilize the directives I have within the <Location>. If I change it to the following:

<Location "/GetMyData">
SetEnv QIBM_CGI_LIBRARY_LIST "MYLIB1;MYLIB2;MYLIB3"
</Location>

Then the directives are picked up. What am I missing? This is Apache 2.2 on IBM I 7.1.
