Reverse proxy HTTPS with Apache
By admin | August 23, 2013
The procedure is mostly similar to the procedure with regular HTTP, but there are a few gimmicks involved here:
- Generate a self-signed one or purchase a SSL certificate (*.crt) for the server in question.
- Make sure you run ‘sudo a2enmod ssl‘ to enable SSL.
- Make sure you have enable the proxy module with ‘sudo a2enmod proxy‘ as well.
Below is a sample reverse HTTPS proxy configuration.
<VirtualHost *:443>
<Proxy *>
Order Deny,Allow
Allow from all
</Proxy>
SSLEngine On
SSLProxyEngine On
SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/cert/server.crt <!-- path to your certifcate and key -->
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/cert/server.key
SSLProxyCheckPeerCN off
SSLProxyCheckPeerExpire off
SSLProxyCheckPeerName off
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPass / https://192.168.42.3/
ProxyPassReverse / https://192.168.42.3/
ProxyPreserveHost On
</VirtualHost>
Replace 192.168.42.3 with the internal IP address of your server, as before (keep the http(s):// portion).
