Harpreet created MESOS-3901: ------------------------------- Summary: Enable Mesos to be able know when it is hosted behind a proxy with a URL prefix Key: MESOS-3901 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-3901 Project: Mesos Issue Type: Improvement Components: webui Reporter: Harpreet
If Mesos is run behind a proxy with a URL prefix e.g. https://<hostname>:<port>/services/mesos (`/services/mesos` being the URL prefix), sandboxes in mesos don't load. This happens because when Mesos is accessed through a proxy at https://<hostname>:<port>/services/mesos, Mesos tries to request slave state from https://<hostname>:<port>/slave/20151110-232502-218431498-5050-1234-S1/slave(1)/state.json?jsonp=angular.callbacks._4. This URL is missing the /services/mesos path prefix, so the request fails. Fixing this by rewriting URLs in the body of every response, would not be a clean solution and can be error prone. After searching around a bit we've learned that this is apparently a common issue with webapps, because there is no standard specification for making them aware of their base URL path. Some will allow you to specify a base path in configuration[1], others will respect an X-Forwarded-Path header if a proxy provides it[2], and others don't handle this at all. It would be great to have explicit support in for this in Mesos.
