I thought we used to have a note on the wiki or somewhere explaining how to configure mod_proxy to point a specific domain to a bare apache running on the same machine (or just right to an htdocs directory), but I don't seem to be able to find it.
Anyone got a pointer?

How about Customizing WRE Configuration?

Actually, none of the recipes on that page tell how to do what I'm looking for, which is to take incoming requests for one specific site to the mod_proxy apache on :80, and just send them off to a directory somewhere.
I guess I'll just play with it a bit.

If you want to host a website with their own domain configure a virtual host for this domain:

Well, thank you.
Could you, now, expand for me on how, precisely, one shoehorns that into the already existing config framework of mod_proxy in WRE 0.8 (just like my subject line for the thread suggests)?
Cause I *know* how to do it on a raw Apache setup; that wasn't what I was asking.

Well, as it happens, making a copy of a SITENAME.modproxy file in /data/wre/etc and modifying it appropriately, then restarting Apache, *does* actually work.
I ripped out all the mod_rewrite stuff, changed the sitename and docroot appropriately, and I was golden.

Now that you have it working, how about updating the wiki page that shows how to setup alternative Apache configurations?

Well, this will work.
I recommend not to use a *.modproxy file. You can not know what will happen with these files for example during a wre update.
Use a different file e.g. SITENAME.localvost and place a statement into the main apache conf file to use these files:
Include [% wreRoot %]/etc/*.localvhost
I think to prepare the wre for such additional vhots configuration should be done to make wre more flexible.

You can use the *.modproxy files.

My other solution will work too ;-)

Well, thanks for taking the bullet, Klaus. :-)
I was going to wait to confirm that was a valid approach, but we'll call that confirmation; I'll get that page updated this week.
