Topic: Hostame rewrite based on location?

[trudesea]

Hi all,

I have a odd situation where I need to reverse proxy to several internal dynamically created internal hosts based on the location

For example, www.example.com/75647 would proxy to a specific internal server. The issue is that the web application requires a specific hostname in order to work.

So, what I would need to do is anything that comes into the url http://www.example.com/75647 would need a hostname rewrite to a value of http://myexample.example.com/

We have several of these internal hosts and the user accesses them based on the location (ex. 75647), which changes. We have a proxy.conf file that has all of these locations (<Location /75647>....</Location>) defined, but all need a hostname rewrite to myexample.example.com. The proxy.conf file is written dynamically with confd.

Is this possible using rewrite conditions or is there a more simple way?

Thanks for any suggestions

You can use

<Location "/75647">
</Location>

and inside of that you can define a reverse proxy.
