Hi list, I'm fiddling a bit with OpenBSD's default httpd(8) to create a very simple reverse proxy. Unfortunately, I'm experiencing a weird behaviour when I use the ServerName directive. The configuration file is straightforward: % ServerType standalone % ServerRoot "/var/www" % PidFile logs/httpd.pid % ScoreBoardFile logs/apache_runtime_status % % Listen 10.0.40.100:80 % % User www % Group www % Port 80 % ServerAdmin hostmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx % ServerName proxy.jeremie.vmware % % UseCanonicalName On % % LogLevel debug % % LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b" common % CustomLog logs/access_log common % % LoadModule proxy_module /usr/lib/apache/modules/libproxy.so % <IfModule mod_proxy.c> % ProxyPass / http://www.jeremie.vmware/ % ProxyPassReverse / http://www.jeremie.vmware/ % </IfModule> When I comment out the ServerName directive, the reverse proxy works. When ServerName is used, it doesn't work anymore and I get the following error message in Firefox: % Proxy Error % The proxy server could not handle the request GET /. % % Reason: Host not found DNS names are correctly set: % tintin:/var/www/conf 223# host www.jeremie.vmware % www.jeremie.vmware is an alias for haddock80.jeremie.vmware. % haddock80.jeremie.vmware has address 10.0.80.200 % www.jeremie.vmware is an alias for haddock80.jeremie.vmware. % www.jeremie.vmware is an alias for haddock80.jeremie.vmware. % % tintin:/var/www/conf 224# host proxy.jeremie.vmware % proxy.jeremie.vmware is an alias for tintin40.jeremie.vmware. % tintin40.jeremie.vmware has address 10.0.40.100 % proxy.jeremie.vmware is an alias for tintin40.jeremie.vmware. % proxy.jeremie.vmware is an alias for tintin40.jeremie.vmware. As you can see, I asked for debug message in ErrorLog, but I can't see anything relevant. The only line issued when the query is made is : % [Thu Mar 15 18:40:40 2007] [debug] proxy_cache.c(0): No CacheRoot, % so no caching. Declining. Though this may appear quite off-topic, I tried to provide httpd.conf(5) with a CacheRoot directive, but this doesn't resolve my problem... Instead I have the following messages: % [Thu Mar 15 18:42:31 2007] [debug] proxy_cache.c(0): Request for % http://www.jeremie.vmware/, pragma_req=(unset), ims=0 % [Thu Mar 15 18:42:31 2007] [debug] proxy_util.c(0): File % /proxy/K/A/I/_dgyuc5xAy6ph@OoPlA not found % [Thu Mar 15 18:42:31 2007] [debug] proxy_cache.c(0): Local copy % not present or expired. Declining. Any clue will be welcome! Thank you.
