In iTools, the Proxy cache comes shipped disabled due to the overhead in the Proxy module. In order to enable the Apache Proxy, uncomment lines 859-887 in your /Local/Library/WebServer/Configuration/apache.conf file. Make sure that there is only one “ProxyRequests On” directive in your apache.conf file. Once this is done, make sure that the /Local/Library/WebServer/ProxyCache directory is owned by user “www” so that Apache can write to it. Once this is done, restart Apache and the admin server, and your ProxyCache should work. 8.
