Re: 2 reverse proxy to serve an application

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



    A-----B-----C

request from internet comes at A it forwards that to B and then B
 checks if it has to send that request to C or it can serve that from B itself.

I am posting the configurations.

site1.abc.com
site2.abc.com
site3.abc.com
site4.abc.com

these sites above are having domain names which have been registered.

Any request to any of them i.e. site1.abc.com or site3.abc.com

Comes at A

Following is vhost configuration at A
for

site2.mydomain.com

<VirtualHost *:80>

	ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
	ServerName site2.mydomain.com	
	ProxyRequests off
        <Proxy *>
        Order deny,allow
        Allow from all
        </Proxy>

	ProxyPreserveHost On

	
	ProxyPass /application http://nirvana/
	ProxyPassReverse /application http://nirvana/

        ProxyPass / http://server2
        ProxyPassReverse / http://server2

</VirtualHost>


Where server2 is B in above diagram.
and /application is forwarded to B which in turn forward to C.
In above configuration nirvana and server2 are both pointing to same server B.


Following is configuration of Server B

for a request that comes with a server name for nirvana

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
        ServerName nirvana
        ServerAlias

        ProxyRequests Off

         <Proxy *>
        Order deny,allow
        Allow from all
        </Proxy>

        ProxyPreserveHost On
        ProxyPass / http://papaserver:9090/portal
        ProxyPassReverse / http://papaserver:9090/portal



Where papaserver is Server C which is a tomcat instance.Not apache and
on C I can access it by

http://localhost:9090/portal

Server B is serving a request which comes for a
ServerName nirvana and also
ServerName site2.abc.com

A request that comes for nirvana that has to be forwarded to C such that

on internet any one if types
http://site2.abc.com/application

he can see the same content which I see as
http://localhost:9090/portal on physically opening a browser at C.

My problem is if a request originally is coming for site2.abc.com
and I have kept ProxyPreserveHost On then orginial hostname requested
is preserved in this process which is site2.abc.com
but for a request for site2.abc.com/application
I need to proxy it to Server B so that Server B can respond with a
different hostname than site2.abc.com
