Dear all
I have quite a similar task like jameslio who asked at the beginning of the month.
In my case there is a server that acts as a firewall and a KVM hypervisor. It is physically connected to the internet and serves a private virtual subnet for the VM guests with NAT. It forwards all HTTP(S) requests to a VM which runs an Apache instance.
Several guest VMs are running on that server:
- Apache which only acts as proxy to forward VirtualDirectory to internal adress / port combinations.
- Some services who listen on their internal IP and a specific port.
Maybe an example can help: There is a request on "example.com/service1".
The request is NATed by iptables to the VM in which Apache is running.
Apache proxies the request to the VM in which service 1 is running on the port service 1 listens to (e.g. 192.168.1.101:8080).
I have everything running except for the Apache configuration which I struggle a bit. If I understand it correctly, I only have to set my sites-available/default.conf to:
| Code: | <VirtualHost *:80>
ProxyPreserveHost On
<Location /service1>
ProxyPass http://192.168.1.101:8080/
ProxyPassReverse http://192.168.1.101:8080/
</Location>
</VirtualHost> |
Thanks for any help and advice. |

| What is not working with that? Do you load all the needed modules? Anything related in the error and access log? |
