Hi folks, I've come a long way understanding how ProxyPassReverse is
supposed to work, and in many ways it's doing exactly what I want it to
do - it rewrites the URLs on returning redirects to match a specific
pattern.
However, my problem is I want to rewrite the protocol side of the URL,
not just the path. I need to change it from 'http' to 'https'.
Here's the situation.
My application is hosted in AWS, and we're using ELB (the load balancer)
to act as an SSL endpoint. This means that queries to
https://eventj.com/customer/ come from the browser as SSL, but hit
Apache via HTTP on port 80. ProxyPass is working correctly to forward
that into Tomcat, and returned traffic is correct.
However.
If a redirect happens in Tomcat (which the application does on a regular
basis, say to redirect to a login page), the redirect comes back as a
non-SSL request (503 http://eventj.com/customer/).
This rule is what I'm using in my proxy:
# customer
ProxyPass /customer/ ajp://10.122.103.207:8009/customer/
ProxyPassReverse /customer/ http://eventj.com/customer
I've tried adding this to the responses:
RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Protocol "https"
but no dice.
I've tried doing things like "ProxyPassReverse
https://eventj.com/customer/ http://eventj.com/customer"; but that
results in a mangled URL of
'http://eventj.com/https://eventj.com/customer/customer' or something
like that (I don't have the exact result. It didn't work :)
How can i use proxypassreverse (or something similar) to ensure that my
traffic doesn't get redirected out of ALL SSL, ALL the time?
Thanks!
