Apache example for "Configuring Your Reverse Proxy"?

[rotdrop]

Is there a reason why there is no Apache example for the reverse proxy setup?

Thx!

hello
no particular reason, we were more familar with and tested with nginx, caddy, etc.
Pietro has recently tested it with Apache and will be adding it to the readme soon #42

Thank you! I actually was just curious if there would be problems to be expected.

Although this ticket has been closed it should still be considered as open as Nextcloud mentioned that Apache2 is the only "valid" and tested web server for Nextcloud.

Due to that it would also make sense to have a reverse proxy example for it.

Well, I'll re-open the issue. Anyone who adds such an example may feel free to close this issue again ;)

Here's a location block to be embedded in an existing apache VirtualHost configuration.

    <Location /exapps/>
        ProxyPreserveHost On
        ProxyPass http://127.0.0.1:8780/exapps/ nocanon
        ProxyPassReverse http://127.0.0.1:8780/exapps/

        # Forward headers
        RequestHeader set X-Real-IP %{REMOTE_ADDR}s
        RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-For %{REMOTE_ADDR}s
        RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Proto expr=%{REQUEST_SCHEME}
    </Location>

You need at least:

a2enmod proxy
a2enmod proxy_http
a2enmod headers

Could you wrap this into a pull-request? That would be great!

I finally could add the harp to my nextcloud docker instance. I use the newest nextcloud version 32 and nextcloud runs in a docker. I followed this guide Nextcloud Docker
Now i pasted the code to my apache2 proxy, that runs on the host locally, but i cant successfully test my harp docker. I get this errors

This is my conf file of apache2

UPDATE: I could fix the problem. Had to pass the proxy to the container not to 127.0.0.1
