Hi all, I am using reverse proxy in apache server. I am running an application 'tst' on the machine 10.5.100.15 accessed by the URL http://10.5.100.15:9080/tst My apache server is installed at another machine 10.5.100.20 on port 80. In httpd.conf I have written the following lines. ProxyPass /abc http://10.5.100.15:9080/tst ProxyPassReverse /abc http://10.5.100.15:9080/tst Now, the problem is that when I access the URL http://10.5.100.20/abc it gives me, page not found error. The address which is displayed in the bar is http://10.5.100.20/tst/disServlet?uAction=initial which actually should be http://10.5.100.20/abc/disServlet?uAction=initial
It might have something to do with your application. For example the following might be happening. - Your request http://10.5.100.20/abc - That request gets passed to http://10.5.100.15:9080/tst - the application responds with a website, which contains something (a refresh statement, or a piece of javascript) that tells the browser to request another page, in this case: /tst/disServlet?uAction=initial - this request obviously fails... What you have to remember is that Apache does not do anything to the content of a response when proxying. So usually you have to tell web applications that are accessed through a revers proxy that rewrites URLs under what URL they are visible to the end user. So maybe you need to change the base URL as configured in your web app. I would susgest to get the "LiveHTTPHeaders" plugin for Firefox. This is really a great tool to debug such situtions, as you can see how many requests your browser actually makes to the server. Also good to have is a command line tool to get webpages, like curl or wget. Do a "wget http://10.5.100.20/abc"; and have a look at what you get. Krist -- krist.vanbesien@xxxxxxxxx Bremgarten b.
