Hello all I am new to apache & the apache mailing list so PLEASE forgive me for my long message :
I am trying to configure a nice reverse proxy using Apache. Basically this is what I want : i want to be able to browse to something like testproxy.myproxy.com and proxy to www.cnn.com. I want to be able to see images and i want javascript and css and all that good stuff loaded as well. I already created a DNS record for testproxy.myproxy.com and this is the configuration im using for the virtual host: <VirtualHost [::]:80> ServerName testproxy.myproxy.com ProxyRequests off ProxyPass / http://www.cnn.com/ ProxyPassReverse / http://www.cnn.com/ </VirtualHost> now when i restart the httpd service (By the way I am using RHEL 6.5), I can browse to testproxy.myproxy.com but allthat appears in the browser are text and links. No images are loaded nor any CSS/javascript. What am I missing in my virtualhost configuration thats preventing me from loading images? Ive noticed that some of the images on cnn.com are hosted on a different site such as : http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/dam/assets/ Im guessing that since the images are hosted in the /cnn/dam/assets/ folder on i2.cdn.turner.com , and the virtualhost/reverse proxy is only set up to proxy pass to www.cnn.com , it is not loading images and scripts that are hosted on http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/dam/assets/. I dont know if i am even close to being accurate with my assumptions. Apache is a very new thing to me. my question is how do I go about configuring my virtualhosts properly so that every image and script that is on www.cnn.com, will be URL rewritten as testproxy.myproxy.com/ blah blah blah as opposed to i2.cdn.turner.com/etcetcetcetc? for example one of the images on CNN's homepage is: http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/dam/assets/140123154723-07-super-bowl-prep-bin-tease.jpg I want to be able to go to a browser, type in testproxy.myproxy.com in the address bar, proxy to www.cnn.com and when i right click on the image, i want the FQDN of the image to be something like http://testproxy.myproxy.com/images/super-bowl-prep-bin-tease.jpg. Basically i want all URLs to be rewritten as http://testproxy.myproxy.com/.......etc etc etc. All help is GREATLY appreciated because well, i am totally lost here lol. Ive done research on using mod_proxy_html and what not, but im still confused as to how I go about doing this in my situation. Please assist me! Thanks!! SBC
