Apache reverse proxy href paths not updating

Question

I'm setting up a very basic reverse proxy. It's working fine for the first login page.

Here is the config.

Client > Proxy > WebServer 192.168.10.5 > 192.168.15.20 > 192.168.5.51

ProxyPass / http://192.168.5.51:8080/

Once the user is logged on, on the page all links path is with the WebServer's IP

In normal case the URI should be " http://192.168.15.20 " but it comes up after login as " http://192.168.5.51:8080 "

Is there any additional configuration directive I'm missing.?

Answer 1

To update the response headers of your backend with the address of your reverse proxy, add a ProxyPassReverse directive below your ProxyPass :

ProxyPass        / http://192.168.5.51:8080/
ProxyPassReverse / http://192.168.5.51:8080/
