Edward Welch commented on CAMEL-9462: ------------------------------------- Is anyone working on this? I could take a look today. My thought would be similar to yours Claus, add a property to the HttpEndpoint "preserveHostHeader" (similar to apache's mod_proxy ProxyPreserveHost directive) Then in the HttpProducer {code} if (getEndpoint().isBridgeEndpoint()) { exchange.setProperty(Exchange.SKIP_GZIP_ENCODING, Boolean.TRUE); String queryString = exchange.getIn().getHeader(Exchange.HTTP_QUERY, String.class); if (queryString != null) { skipRequestHeaders = URISupport.parseQuery(queryString, false, true); } //Remove host header unless instructed not to do so if(!getEndpoint().isPreserveHostHeader()){ exchange.getIn().getHeaders().remove("host"); } } {code} The default would be "false" such that default functionality would be as things are today. Then if you wanted to send the Host header to the destination, you would set preserveHostHeader=true > HTTP 1.1 Host header be dealt wrongly in proxy & load balancer > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CAMEL-9462 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-9462 > Project: Camel > Issue Type: Bug > Components: camel-http, camel-http4 > Affects Versions: 2.9.5, 2.10.3, 2.11.0 > Reporter: Ian Hu > Fix For: 2.17.1, 2.18.0 > > > I have wrote code below make camel as a load balancer, but camel-http4(and > the camel-http, etc) deal the http header Host wrongly, it replace the Host > header with the host name of the backend of balancer, that make the backend > generate the wrong link. > > {code:title=Main.java|borderStyle=solid} > import org.apache.camel.impl.DefaultCamelContext; > import org.apache.camel.model.RouteDefinition; > public class Main { > public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { > DefaultCamelContext context = new DefaultCamelContext(); > RouteDefinition route = new RouteDefinition(); > route.from("jetty:http://0.0.0.0:8080/?matchOnUriPrefix=true") > .loadBalance().roundRobin() > > .to("http4://127.0.0.1:8081/?bridgeEndpoint=true&throwExceptionOnFailure=false") > > .to("http4://127.0.0.1:8082/?bridgeEndpoint=true&throwExceptionOnFailure=false"); > // > context.addRouteDefinition(route); > context.start(); > } > } > {code} > I have view the code and found a fix of > [https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-5757](See the commit), it's > commits simply removed the host header > [https://fisheye6.atlassian.com/browse/camel-git/components/camel-http4/src/main/java/org/apache/camel/component/http4/HttpProducer.java?hb=true#to106]. > and I really do not think it should be dealt like that. > Some backend will use the Host header to generate link, and when the Host > header removed and then it be set to the backend's host, the backend got the > wrong Host, and generate the wrong link. > I expect the link should be http://localhost:8080/web but it generate > http://127.0.0.1:8081/web or http://127.0.0.1:8082/web when I view the page > with the url http://localhost:8080 -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
