Perfect! that works great... I'm not very proficient in apache configuration so thanks for the help!

Hi,
I am trying desperately to setup my GALAXY system so that if you enter the website, you need to authenticate yourself using the proxy setup... I also would like to be able to BYPASS the proxy server when an API call is made...
In the example proxy setting I have setup in the following way:
ReWriteRule ^(/api/histories/.*) http://localhost:8080$1 [P,L] ReWriteRule ^(/api/.*) http://localhost:8081$1 [P,L] RewriteRule ^(.*) http://localhost:8080$1 [P]
I then setup a <PROXY setting in the apache galaxy.d in /etc/httpd/conf.d/galaxy.d to require authentication when a user is re-directed to the localhost:8080 and allow the calls to localhost:8081 to pass unhindered...
This works brilliantly EXCEPT for when you want to make an API call that involves some histories.... The call fails, since /api/histories calls are routed through the proxy server and require authentication, which I want to avoid...
It seems that histories are "special" so they have their own line in the configuration file above...
I tried to change ReWriteRule ^(/api/histories/.*) http://localhost:8080$1 [P,L]
to
ReWriteRule ^(/api/histories/.*) http://localhost:8081$1 [L]
Which DOES work, but it also breaks the automatic update of the history in the webbrowser... I have to reload the page manually to update the history...
Is there anyway I can get the automatic update to work again, but don't require autentication?
Thanks
Thon
