Apache reverse proxy with VirtualHost not serving a page
- by Mr Aleph
I have an Apache reverse proxy set to move requests to a Tomcat Applet. The config is similar to:
<VirtualHost 100.100.100.100:80>
ProxyPass /AppName/App http://1.1.1.1/AppName/App
ProxyPassReverse /AppName/App http://1.1.1.1/AppName/App
</VirtualHost>
I also have a page called summary.html that exists on 1.1.1.1 as:
http://1.1.1.1/AppName/summary.html
When I browse directly to it I have no problem viewing it, however if I try to get there via the reverse proxy I get a blank page. Wireshark shows me a 503, but this one is coming from the Apache reverse proxy (IP 100.100.100.100) and not the Tomcat (IP 1.1.1.1).
Should I add http://1.1.1.1/AppName/ to the config? How? I tried it but I get a blank page, however this one shows on the URL bar of the browser the internal IP of the Tomcat, so, no go.
Help is appreciated.
Thanks.
