return 401 instead of redirect

[vijaypothireddy]

I am trying to implement OIDCUnAuthAction option.

i want to return 401

if it is XMLHttpRequest or
if the request is not text/html or
if the request is /assets or /recline or /test or /src

OIDCUnAuthAction 401 "%{REQUEST_URI} =~ m#^/assets*$# || %{REQUEST_URI} =~ m#^/recline*$# || %{REQUEST_URI} =~ m#^/test*$# || %{REQUEST_URI} =~ m#^/src*$# || %{HTTP:X-Requested-With} == 'XMLHttpRequest' || ( ( %{HTTP_ACCEPT} !~ m#text/html# ) && ( %{HTTP_ACCEPT} !~ m#application/xhtml+xml# ) && ( %{HTTP_ACCEPT} !~ m#*/*# ) )"

but when i request resource under /recline i get redirect .

my reverse proxy conf

....

    ProxyPass "/" "https://<backendip>/"
    ProxyPassReverse "/" "https://<backendip>"
    ProxyPreserveHost On
    SSLProxyVerify none
    SSLProxyCheckPeerCN off
    SSLProxyCheckPeerName off
    SSLProxyCheckPeerExpire off

    OIDCProviderMetadataURL <retracted>
    OIDCClientID   <retracted>
    OIDCClientSecret  <retracted>
    OIDCScope "openid name email"
    OIDCRedirectURI https://<retracted>/redirect_uri/
    OIDCSessionInactivityTimeout 1200
    OIDCStateMaxNumberOfCookies 10 true
    OIDCUnAuthAction 401 "%{REQUEST_URI} =~ m#^/assets\*$#  || %{REQUEST_URI} =~ m#^/recline\*$# || %{REQUEST_URI} =~ m#^/test\*$#  || %{REQUEST_URI} =~ m#^/src\*$# || %{HTTP:X-Requested-With} == 'XMLHttpRequest' || ( ( %{HTTP_ACCEPT} !~ m#text/html# ) && ( %{HTTP_ACCEPT} !~ m#application/xhtml\+xml# ) && ( %{HTTP_ACCEPT} !~ m#\*/\*# ) )"
    OIDCCryptoPassphrase  <retracted>

    <Location />
            AuthType openid-connect
            Require claim <retracted>
    </Location>

can some one explain whats wrong with syntax or config ?

just use Location directives for /assets or /recline or /test or /src as in:

<Location /assets>
  OIDCUnAuthAction 401
</Location>
