Hello, I have a problem I've been grappling with for the past 3 days
without much luck so I thought I'd come to the experts. :-) I have
an Apache 2.0.x server, which acts as a load balancing gateway to
multiple Tomcat servlet containers behind it. This proxying/load
balancing is done using the combination of mod_rewrite and mod_proxy.
It has been working very well for traffic over normal HTTP. I now need
to make this work over HTTPS between the browsers and the Apache, and
that's where I'm having the problem. I configured the Apache server to
listen for HTTPS requests, and they forward correctly over regular HTTP
to the Tomcats behind it, however whenever there is an incoming POST
from a form in the web application, the response from the Tomcat causes
a switch to HTTP, where I need it to remain HTTPS. Here's what the
pertinent portion of the configuration looks like:
RewriteMap tomcats "rnd:/path/to/tomcat-workers.conf"
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyTimeout 8000
<Location ~ "/mywebapp">
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond "%{HTTP_COOKIE}" "(^};\s*)jsessionid=\w*\.(\w+)($|;)" [NC]
RewriteRule "(.*)" "http://$(tomcats:%2)%{REQUEST_URI}" [P,L,NC]
RewriteRule "^.*;jsessionid=\w*\.(\w+)($|;)"
"http://$(tomcats:$1)%{REQUEST_URI}" [P,L,NC]
RewriteRule "(.*)" "http://$(tomcats:all)%{REQUEST_URI}" [P,L,NC]

ProxyPassRevese http://andy:8022/
ProxyPassRevese http://andy:8032/
ProxyPassRevese http://andy:8042/
</Location>
I suspect that the problem lies somewhere in the ProxyPassReverse, but
don't know what I could to remedy it. Any suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks,
Bo
