Workaround issue of Helicon Ape .htaccess RewriteRule from modifying Content Type
Issue:
Using .htaccess in IIS7.5 using Helicon Ape with the last RewriteRule which when left uncommented drops the Content-Type from the Response Headers as viewed by Chrome inspector (see example screen captures below). This occurs to the /flex2gateway/ path which should produce a Content-Type of application/x-amf:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.*/index.cfm/(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^.*/index.cfm/(.*)$ ./rewrite.cfm/$1 [NS,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^.*/(flex2gateway|jrunscripts|cfide|cfformgateway|cffileservlet|railo-context|lucee|files|images|javascripts|miscellaneous|stylesheets|robots.txt|favicon.ico|sitemap.xml|rewrite.cfm)($|/.*$) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ./rewrite.cfm/$1 [NS,L]
Results from the last RewriteRule:
Results as they should be or when the last RewriteRule is commented out
I have tried numerous workarounds including adding the following but nothing has resolved the issue:
RewriteRule ^flex2gateway/$ [NS,T=application/x-amp,L]
Solution
I finally figured it out and of course it was a simple fix!
Just add jakarta| to the RewriteCond pattern:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^.*/(jakarta|flex2gateway|jrunscripts|cfide|cfformgateway|cffileservlet|railo-context|lucee|files|images|javascripts|miscellaneous|stylesheets|robots.txt|favicon.ico|sitemap.xml|rewrite.cfm)($|/.*$) [NC]
ColdFusion 10 is now using /jakarta/isapi_redirect.dll to process the flex2gateway path.
