Thinking through an idea, wanted to get feedback/suggestions: Having had great success with url rewriting and nginx, I'm now thinking of a more capable reverse proxy/router that would do the following: Map requests to handlers based on regex matching (ala Django) Certain requests would simply be routed to backend servers - eg. static ...
I’ve configure my apache accordingly from what I’ve read in the apache 2.2 manual. Taking the following as an example of my configuration. ProxyRequests Off <Proxy *> Order deny,allow Allow from all </Proxy> ProxyPass "/home/kwokfu/sandbox" "http://localhost:8080/sandbox" ProxyPassReverse "/home/kwokfu/sandbox" "http://localhost:8...
I have the following setup: Plain-Server: Delivering php-files as plain text Proxy-Server: Asking the Plain-Server for the php file and parsing it. Now my question: How do I configure the Proxy-Server (a fully configurable apache 2.2 with PHP 5.3) to interpret the plain php files from Plain-Server? Example: Given a small php script ...
On Unix, I normally deploy nginx in front of Varnish in front of my application server. Both nginx and Varnish are acting as reverse proxies here. Varnish maintains a cache and supports things like If-Modified-Since, Cache-Control response headers and PURGE requests from the application. nginx is good at receiving a lot of connections. I...
I am using IIS7 and the Application Request Routing extension to act as a reverse proxy to Subversion running on Apache. The proxy works fine and I am able to explore the server, and even perform a "check out". However, I cannot browse to files that would normally be forbidden by ASP.NET - for example, .cs, .csproj, and so on. Files AS...
Which IIS 7 ISAPI Filter can help me doing that : http://site1.domain1.com:80 ==> Internal IIS Server 1 (HTTP, TCP 80) https://site2.domain1.com:443 ==> Internal IIS Server 1 (HTTPS, TCP 443) http://site1.domain2.com:80 ==> Internal IIS Server 2 (HTTP, TCP 80) http://site2.domain2.com:443 ==> Internal IIS Server 2 (HTTPS, TCP 443) h...
I'm having this problem with GWT when it's behind a reverse proxy. The backend app is deployed within a context - let's call it /context. The GWT app works fine when I hit it directly: http://host:8080/context/ I can configure a reverse proxy in front it it. Here's my nginx example: upstream backend { server 127.0.0.1:8080; } ...
I'm writing a small web service(like a content server) to search and serve content. Basically it has 2 parts - one dynamic part performing client authentication and providing search functionality over the content. The second part involves serving static content to the authenticated client. What can be a good architecture for the above s...
Hi, I am trying to set up my apache (version 2.2.3) to work as reverse proxy. I configured apache on public server as it is described at http://www.askapache.com/htaccess/reverse-proxy-apache.html LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so LoadModule headers_module module...
Hi, I'm using Apache/2.2.8 (Ubuntu) and have a problem. There is a file /etc/apache2/sites-available/backuppc with the following: <VirtualHost *> ProxyRequests Off <Proxy *> Order deny,allow Allow from all </Proxy> ProxyPass /backuppc http://192.168.134.59:80/backuppc ProxyPassReverse /backuppc http://192.168.134.59:80/backuppc ...

I would like to set up Apache 2 as a reverse proxy using name-based virtual hosts to decide how requests are routed to back-end servers. Simple enough. The catch is that these back-end servers may be added and removed in a dynamic fashion. My first idea was to programmatically re-write an Apache configuration file and call apachectl gra...
Note: I originally posted this on ServerFault, but I haven't gotten any responses at all. Since it looks like I'm on track to get the Tumbleweed badge over there, I figured I would try here also. Our existing public website consists of a mish-mash of asp.net pages with mostly static content and some real web applications that are set ...
I have two apache servers set up. One is public facing, the other is behind a firewall. The one behind the firewall is used to serve up content (vids, pics, etc). I've set up a reverse proxy so that any requests to http://mysite.com/content/ actually go to the server inside my firewall. See my serverfault question. My site uses PHP ...
Hi, I have a python (well, it's php now but we're rewriting) function that takes some parameters (A and B) and compute some results (finds best path from A to B in a graph, graph is read-only), in typical scenario one call takes 0.1s to 0.9s to complete. This function is accessed by users as a simple REST web-service (GET bestpath.php?f...
Sometimes it is not possible to find if user is using Anonymous proxy. So i came up with some ideas: Get IP of client, do reverse check and check if it returns a hostname and also get number of any websites hosted on same ip then it could be a proxy connection assuming it is website hosting provider ip. Store ips of hosting providers w...
I'm trying to write a simple load-balancer. It works ok till one of servers (BalanceServer) doesn't close connection then... Client (ReverseProxy) disconnects but the connection in with BalanceServer stays open. I tried to add callback (#3) to ReverseProxy.connectionLost to close the connection with one of the servers as I do with closin...
Suppose Client A connects though TCP/IP Sockets to Server B Is it possible to create a Proxy Like Server thing to do this: Client A Connects to Proxy X ; And tried to authenticate to the server (sends authentication data) ; Proxy X receives those data and sends them to Server B and gets the response from the Server B and returns the res...
why would perlbal's reproxying give me a 503 for any remote url? X-REPROXY-URL: /path/to/a/local/file.jpg = working X-REPROXy-URL: http://a-public-file-in-an-s3-bucket.jpg = HTTP 503 my perlbal conf looks like: CREATE POOL test_pool POOL test_pool ADD 127.0.0.1:8888 POOL test_pool ADD 127.0.0.1:8889 CREATE SERVICE balancer ...
I'd like to know how could I get the original HOST IP when the web server is behind an ISA server acting as a reverse proxy. Other reverse proxies -like squid- add the "X_FORWARDED_FOR" value to the request header, but ISA server doesn't. Thanks ...
