Jon,

"Have you asked the question on the Wordpress forums?"

I did just that a few minutes ago although it does seem to be an apache config thing. I may take a look at mod_rewrite and see if I can write a few directives that properly format the URL. I am not an Apache expert by any means and RegEx makes my head hurt, but all the research I have done so far seems to point to an issue with Apache proxypass and canonical URL's, which WP recently implemented.

I was hoping someone had already experienced the pain and gotten it worked out to save me the learning curve.

I am close as it is. The blog displays just fine. But the login to administer the site is an issue and seems to be affected by the proxy pass directive.

I'll eventually figure it out. And I'll post back here when I do.

Pete

Perhaps WordPress is too smart for its own good but it seems this problem
could come up with other PHP applications.


Have you asked the question on the Wordpress forums? While the IBM i implementation is somewhat unusual I can't believe this is the only time Wordpress has been used where a proxy server was involved - and isn't that all this really is?
