Hi list,

I have a requirement to set up a reverse proxy (web accelerator) which will
accept incoming HTTP and HTTPS connections (using our Verisign credentials
on the proxy) and proxy those requests to other web servers.

The catch is I need the connection between the proxy and the web server to
be HTTPS if and only if the incoming connection to the proxy is HTTPS. I
will be using self-signed certificates on the web servers.

Apache+mod_ssl looks like it can do this with ProxyPass/ProxyPassReverse
but where do I reference the self signed certificate of the web server in
httpd.conf?

At the moment I get the following error in my browser when I try to use the
reverse proxy:

Proxy Error
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.


The proxy server could not handle the request GET /.


Reason: SSL proxy connect failed (slrsdct1.internal.standardlife.com:443):
peer 172.31.100.31:443: decryption failed or bad record mac


Thanks in advance.

Michael Pacey
