2000-11-20 -+- Colin McCouig -+- colinmc@black-sun.cix.co.uk -+- Hi,<br>I am trying to set up namevirtualhost to proxy onto another namevirtual host on the same server. Everything seems to work apart from passing QUERY_STRING.<br>In outline, I have a number of servers clustered by a cisco Localdirector. All servers have a namevirtualsite fred.com and each server also has a unique site www1.fred.com, www2.fred.com etc. The servers are running coldfusion which in turn is talking to a backend database. all communication is via the local director, so this is why I need the unique sites to establish the one to one relationship between coldfusion and the database. If we don't do this localdirector will loadbalance the connection and the responce will go to a different server.<br>I believed that running fred.com as a shell site with just<br>proxypass / http://www1.fred.com/<br>proxypassreverse / http://www1.fred.com/<br>would push the URL to www1.fred.com in a transparent manner and indeed it does. However if the URL contains query info e.g. http://fred.com/index.cfm?ID=1234,method=full<br>Then the query is split off and placed in the environmental variable QUERY_STRING. It then appears that the proxy pass occurs but the QUERY_STRING does not get passed.<br>Does anybody have any ideas.<br>Thanks in anticipation<br>Colin.

2001-03-07 -+- Gary Argraves -+- gArgraves@earthlink.net -+- Hi,<br><br>Help: <br>I use proxyPass, but have a problem I can not solve. The setup is a WWW server will send request to Class C network behind WWW server. The proxy requests are delayed 80 seconds before they are passed. I monitor the apache access log and the WWW inbound request does not get appended for about 80 seconds.<br><br>here is a URL that exhibits the problem:<br>  http://www.arraygenetics.com/siFind3.html<br><br>The system is SuSE 7.0 Linux. The proxy machine is Win-ME running apache.<br>Can the problem have something to do with keep alives between systems ?<br><br>Any help will be greatly appreciated.<br><br>Thanks,<br>Gary<br>

2001-10-11 -+- Chris -+-   -+- Just wanted to say thanks! I was actually searching for something else when I came across the page, but this was on my todo list. I knew there was an easy way to go about it, but using mod_proxy never occured to me.

2002-01-01 -+- Michael Mowbay -+- talkback@michaelmowbray.net -+- This all works really well for me except in the case where the "target" of the ProxyPass is a VirtualHost defined on the internal machine.  I just can't get that going - it always goes to the default (first) VirtualHost definition.  Anyone had any luck with that?
2002-03-17 -+- Tim -+- none@noemail.com -+- Excellent. Quick. Concise. I was looking for a way to proxy netsaint through to two other datacenter netsaint boxes already connected via encrypted tunnels on the backend --had to add the specific vhost on the backend. Works well and no need for ACL changes :) <br>Apache.orgs documentation is excellent, but sometimes they do not get to the point. <br><br>...that should help with Michaels problem as well. <br><br><br>Thanks,<br><br>Tim<br>FreeBSD, Linux Solaris, NT admin<br>*a top ten internet property via unique visitors (media metrix)<br>
2002-04-05 -+- Ian -+-   -+- Excellent!  I used ssh -R to punch though a firewall to an external web server, and proxypass on that server to forward requests to the ssh port:<br><br>On the local (firewalled) machine:<br><br>ssh -R 8000:localhost:80 -N user@webserver<br><br>and on the webserver:<br><br>ProxyPass /test http://127.0.0.1:8000<br><br>So requests for /test on the webserver are forwarded over ssh to the machine inside the firewall.<br><br>Ian<br>

2002-10-17 -+- fer -+- ferdiab@ieee.org -+- the problem is that we have frontserver on solaris machine and apache. we setuped the proxypass on this server to two remote servers which are another solaris machine and a windows machine with IIS. we have the second two machines in secure zone while the first frontserver is in the semisecure zone. we have this configuration and it is working. suddenly we have electricity problem and the front server shutdown. we start it again but we surprised that it is working to pass requests to the solaris machine but not to the windows machine. we have page not found error when we try to acess the configuraion with the windows proxypass from out side the LAN but have no problem when accessing it from inside the LAN. what could be the configuration which will affect this.... <br>  <br>please try to respond as fast possible and i am thankful for u........ <br>  <br> -+- 212.98.130.105 = Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)

No <br>syntax error is given and httpd can be restarted, but /csat is passed <br>to "/" instead of the specifed URL, and I think it's because of the variable <br>at the end. Does anybody know ?
