Hi Maya, Maybe try this:
http-request set-header Host context_path.ms.example.com if { path_beg /context_path } { hdr(Host) -i example.com } ________________________________ From: Maya Lena Ayleen Scheu <maya.sc...@check24.de> Sent: Wednesday, August 11, 2021 9:58 PM To: haproxy@formilux.org <haproxy@formilux.org> Subject: Question about available fetch-methods for http-request Hi there, I have some questions regarding Haproxy Configuration in Version HA-Proxy version 2.0.23, which is not clear by reading the official documentation. I hope you would have some ideas how this could be solved. What I wish to accomplish: A frontend application is called by an url with a context path in it. Haproxy should set a Header in the backend section with `http-request set-header Host` whereas the set Host contains the context_path found in the url-path. I try to make it clear with an example: The called url looks like: `https://example.com/context_path/abc/etc` Out of this url I would need to set the following Host Header: `context_path.ms.example.com`, while the path remains `/context_path/abc/etc` While I find many fetch-examples for ACLs, I had to learn that most of them don’t work on `http-request set-header or set-env`. I tried to use `path_beg` or `path_reg`, which parses with errors, that the fetch method is unknown. So something like this doesn’t work: `http-request set-header Host %[path_reg(...)].ms.example.domain.com<http://ms.example.domain.com> if host_example` or this: `http-request set-var(req.url_context) path_beg,lower if host_example` Question: I am certain that this should somehow be possible, as I found even solutions to set variables or Headers by urlp, cookies, etc. What would be the explanation, why fetch methods like path_beg are not available in this context? And how to work around it? Thank you in advance and best regards, Maya Scheu [https://c.ap4.content.force.com/servlet/servlet.ImageServer?id=0156F00000DRM7G&oid=00D90000000absk&lastMod=1526270984000] Know Your Customer due diligence on demand, powered by intelligent process automation Blogs<https://www.encompasscorporation.com/blog/> | LinkedIn<https://www.linkedin.com/company/encompass-corporation/> | Twitter<https://twitter.com/EncompassCorp> Encompass Corporation UK Ltd | Company No. SC493055 | Address: Level 3, 33 Bothwell Street, Glasgow, UK, G2 6NL Encompass Corporation Pty Ltd | ACN 140 556 896 | Address: Level 10, 117 Clarence Street, Sydney, New South Wales, 2000 This email and any attachments is intended only for the use of the individual or entity named above and may contain confidential information If you are not the intended recipient, any dissemination, distribution or copying of this email is prohibited.
