Hello All, My apologies if this has been asked before, but I have done extensive Googling and I can’t find it if it has! What we’re doing is using a Reverse Proxy setup to redirect a local request to another local URL: ProxyPass /path/morePath/info http://localhost:7000/morePath/info retry=0 ttl=10 ProxyPass /path/morePath ws://localhost:7000/morePath retry=0 ttl=10 ProxyPass /path/ http://localhost:7000/ retry=0 ttl=10 That works MOST of the time. The problem we’re seeing is this: If we try to pre-configure a system that is set up for DHCP but has no network connection (pre-configuring on a bench) and thus no IP address, we’re having trouble with the
redirect. BUT if I change the above to the following: ProxyPass /path/morePath/info http://0.0.0.0:7000/morePath/info retry=0 ttl=10 ProxyPass /path/morePath ws://0.0.0.0:7000/morePath retry=0 ttl=10 ProxyPass /path/ http://0.0.0.0:7000/ retry=0 ttl=10 Then it works fine. So my question is: what’s the difference here? What exactly does mod_proxy do with the address 0.0.0.0, and why doesn’t “localhost” work? Thanks for whatever help you can give!
