I have now made a few tests, and you are right about the error log: setting LogLevel debug does not give any output regarding the way ProxyPass is handled. In order to get some logging, I replaced ProxyPass with an equivalent RewriteRule and set SSLProxyEngine ON. The request was correctly passed to the backend server. Then I turned SSLProxyEngine Off and got a HTTP 500 Internal Server Error when replaying the same request. In both cases I got rewrite logs. I suggest you: 1. set "RewriteEngine ON" 2. set "RewriteLogLevel 2" (at least) 3. Replace "ProxyPass /services/doc-literal https://myserver/doc-literal" with "RewriteRule ^/services/doc-literal https://myserver/doc-literal [P]" 4. Restart your server 5. Request https://beta.testing.ie/services/doc-literal/whatever 6. Post the contents of /home/logs/rewrite_log to this mailing list. -ascs -----Original Message----- From: Suzy Fynes [mailto:suzanne.fynes@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, December 06, 2005 12:09 PM To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: [users@httpd] reverse proxy with Apache 2.0 The log is been be created but its empty -----Original Message----- From: Axel-Stéphane SMORGRAV [mailto:Axel-Stephane.SMORGRAV@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 06 December 2005 08:42 To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: [users@httpd] reverse proxy with Apache 2.0 Try setting "LogLevel debug".

The bug you refer to concerns doing ProxyPass through a proxy (CONNECT). I did not see any ProxyRemote in Suzy's configuration. Here is an example of a virtual host that does use SSLProxyEngine. I currently use Apache 2.0.54. Have you tried to activate debug logging ? -ascs <VirtualHost labelle16:443> LogLevel warn ProxyRequests Off RewriteEngine Off RewriteLog /u01/apachetest/logs/rewrite_log RewriteLogLevel 0 ServerName www.sugar.fr SSLEngine On SSLCertificateFile /u01/apachex509/x509/ssl.crt/www.sugar.fr.crt SSLCertificateKeyFile /u01/apachex509/x509/ssl.key/www.sugar.fr.key SSLProxyEngine On ProxyPass / https://nicolet5.salt.fr/ ProxyPassReverse / https://nicolet5.salt.fr/ ProxyPassReverse / http://nicolet5.salt.fr/ ProxyPassReverse / https://labelle.salt.fr/ ProxyPassReverseCookieDomain .salt.fr .sugar.fr </VirtualHost> -----Original Message----- From: Alexander Lazic [mailto:al-httpdusers@xxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, November 29, 2005 11:35 PM To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [users@httpd] reverse proxy with Apache 2.0 Hi, On Die 29.11.2005 16:04, Suzy Fynes wrote: > >Tried that and still getting the same error or problem it can be that you fall into theses bug, if i understand you right: --- http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19188 ProxyPass'ing to HTTPS server via proxy does not work --- I have asked on the dev-list to fix this bug but i don't have get an answer today.
