I have a VirtualHost block that includes common configuration items, one directive is ProxyPreserveHost.
Can I "procedurally" turn off ProxyPreserveHost for a Rewrite directive then have the include turn it back on? For example:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.blah.com
...
...
ProxyPreserveHost off
RewriteRule /somepath http://otherhost/otherpath [P]
Include /path/to/file/turning-on-ProxyPreserveHost
</VirtualHost>
The otherhost is on a CDN and preserving the host is creating some name resolution issue that is not allowing the proxying of content in the host namespace.
ProxyReserveHost is only allowed in a Server Config or VirtualHost. It doesn't look like I can selectively turn it off for the ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse directives (encapsulated in the proxy flag of mod_rewrite).
