We are currently relocating an application that uses context to select "profiles" (define app properties and JDBC connection string)
For now, the URL is this kind: https://www.foo.com/test/company/profil-name/ Then you are redirected to https://www.foo.com/test/company/profil-name/web/online But there is also other stuff like api contexts: https://www.foo.com/api/profile-name/
I know that the current application is using apache + haproxy on frontend and backend:
Web => apache => local haproxy => backend haproxy => application backend
My problem is that I'm trying to reproduce the same config here, but the proxy doesn't work well (I test with a modified host file):
https://www.foo.com/test/company/profil-name/ redirects to https://www.foo.com/web/test/company/profil-name/online
It's like the initial context was taken as option string by the application.
I made some combination on haproxy / apache config and when I use a simple reverse proxy configuration without profiles context selection, it's working (except that I have only one profile...) :
https://www.foo.com/web/online
Did you already have these kind of behavior ? I use haproxy 1.8 and apache httpd 2.4.
Here is what my haproxy config looks like:
frontend default
bind *:80
capture request header X-Forwarded-For len 15
acl rest_url path /api
acl rest_url path_beg /api/
acl app1_profile path_beg /test/company/app1
acl app2_profile path_beg /test/company/app2
use_backend app3 if rest_url
use_backend app1 if app1_profile
use_backend app2 if app2_profile
backend app1
cookie SERVERID insert indirect nocache httponly
#http-request redirect location http://test.domain.com%[url,regsub(^/web/,/test/company/app1/web/,)]%[query] if { path_beg /web/ }
#http-request set-var(txn.path) path
#http-response redirect location https://test.domain.com/test/company/app1/var(txn.path) if ! { path_beg /test/ }
#reqirep ^Host:\ .*$ Host:https://test.domain.com/test/company/app1/
server app1_backend 192.168.10.15:80
Apache config:
ProxyRequests On
ProxyPreserveHost On
<Location /test/company/app1/>
ProxyPass http://localhost:80/
ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:80/
</Location>
I have spent hours to try to have a working config, but it still doesn't work. I hope that someone could help me.
Thanks,
Sebastian
