Symptoms

In an HTTP Server of an  Application Server 10.1.2.3.0 environment on Windows 2003, using a RewriteRule or ProxyPass to proxy requests to the WebCache/OHS HTTPS port fails with a NZ 29024 error and the request is not possible.

This is an example of the configuration which can fail:

If the RewriteRule is not proxied (i.e. the RewriteRule has not the [P] flag) and has the redirect [R] flag is used instead the request is proxied fine.

The problem can be reproduced on Application Server 10.1.2 and 10.1.3 but just on Microsoft Windows platforms.
