[opencms-dev] mod_proxy documentation error and question

Hello,

there's an online documentation page that comes with Opencms 6.0.3 for
configuring tomcat+apache to work via mod_proxy.

It reads in Step 2:

(...)
> you have to remove any occurrence of the ${SERVLET_NAME} variable. After editing, it has to look similar to:
> 
>   <rendersettings>
>       <rfs-prefix>/export</rfs-prefix>
>       <vfs-prefix>${SERVLET_NAME}</vfs-prefix>
>       <userelativelinks>false</userelativelinks>   
>       <exporturl>http://127.0.0.1:8080${SERVLET_NAME}/handle404</exporturl>
(...)

Could someone please clarify this? I think it should read "you have to
remove any occurrence of the ${CONTEXT_NAME} variable", but that's only
my guess.


Additional question - this documentation says about the system requirements:
> Apache httpd webserver 2.0.44 (should work with all stable versions of Apache httpd 2.0, version 1.3 will not work)

Could anybody please give me a short hint, why it's supposed to fail
with apache httpd 1.3?

Thanks,
  Claus Herwig
