I'm attempting to set up a config file for Mule ESB 2.2.1 that routes incoming requests to another box. This seems straight forward, but I am getting connection refused exceptions and I'm not sure why.
Here is the model from my Mule configuration file:
<model name="ProxySample">
<service name="HttpProxyService">
<inbound>
<http:inbound-endpoint address="http://localhost:8787" synchronous="true"/>
</inbound>
<outbound>
<pass-through-router>
<outbound-endpoint address="http://server2.xyz.com:8080#[header:http.request]" synchronous="true"/>
</pass-through-router>
</outbound>
</service>
</model>
I am browsing to http://localhost:8787/my-site in my browser, thinking that it will route to http://server2.xyz.com:8080/my-site, but I get a connection refused error.
Here is the console output from the Mule server:
