What is the "right" way to host CUPS behind Apache 2
- by Greymeister
I have tried some combinations of ProxyPass, ProxyPassReverse and ProxyHTMLURLMap but I'm still not having much luck. I just would like to be able to hit the printers in CUPS by going to www.printerhost.com/printers/printername rather than having to add a port 631 or have CUPS listen on port 80.
As requested, here is the configuration file:
LoadModule proxy_html_module modules/mod_proxy_html.so
LoadModule xml2enc_module modules/mod_xml2enc.so
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName blah.yours.com
JkMount /* balancer
JkMount /jkmanager jk-status
JkUnMount /cups* balancer
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPass /cups/ http://localhost:631/
ProxyHTMLURLMap http://localhost:631 /cups
<Location /cups/>
ProxyPassReverse /
ProxyHTMLEnable On
ProxyHTMLURLMap / /cups/
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
