Thanks Joshua, but I am now forbidden to access http://localhost:8080/my_webapp "Forbidden You don't have permission to access /my_webapp on this server." I have now tried creating a password using htpasswd -c /my_webapp admin And added <Directory /my_webapp> AuthType Basic AuthName "Restricted Files" AuthUserFile /my_webapp Require user admin </Directory> I still get the forbidden message. -----Original Message----- From: Joshua Slive [mailto:jslive@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, 3 March 2005 3:06 AM To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [users@httpd] Reverse proxy with password Importance: Low On Wed, 2 Mar 2005 16:12:26 +1030, Lance Semmens <lance.semmens@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi, I'm new to apache httpd and I'm trying to configure a reverse proxy. > I'm wanting to proxy requests to a webapp running on tomcat on the same > machine as httpd > I'd like httpd to request a username / password before proxying calls to > tomcat. > I've tried using a <VirtualHost> but the documentation is a bit too techy > for me and I don't really understand what I should be specifying for > DocumentRoot and ServerName. > > Lets assume that > apache is running on http://localhost:8080 > my webapp on tomcat is running on http://localhost:80/my_webapp > i'd like requests to http://localhost:8080/my_webapp to be proxied > to http://localhost:80/my_webapp You shouldn't really need a <VirtualHost> for this. Just ProxyPass /my_webapp http://localhost:80/my_webapp ProxyPassReverse /my_webapp http://localhost:80/my_webapp You will, of course, need to adjust Listen and ServerName to specifiy the 8080 port.
