Simone,

Let me see if I got this right..

I have my current URL with a registered domain 
http://mydomain.com/geoserver/ows and my current proxy is just the same URL 
http://mydomain.com/geoserver 

We mostly use GeoServer in customized Web Apps and consuming the data with QGIS 
as well. 

If I change the proxy URL to http://newdomain.com/whatever :

        1- Would the old URL's (http://mydomain.com/geoserver/ows) referenced 
in many web apps still work? Yes?

        2- Would I be able to connect to the old and new URL's with QGIS? Yes?

It's just one customer's request but it affects everybody and everything and I 
don't want to make a wrong move. On the other hand I still have to check the 
Apache/Tomcat configuration as in many articles I've seen that people tend to 
solve this by using VirtualHosts.

Thanks for your help.

Regards,

Agur bero bat,

David,

changing the proxy URL changes URLs generated by GeoServer, so may not be 
appropriate when you have multiple tenants in a single GeoServer.

Not changing the proxy URL will cause client applications that discover 
resources via (for example) GetCapabilities and WFS DescribeFeatureType to see 
these resources as being on a different host. This may cause problems with 
JavaScript cross-origin rules, depending on use-cases and the behaviour of a 
client application.

For example, the schemaLocation URL in a WFS response will likely have the same 
host and context path for all tenants, regardless of DNS. All server URLs in 
GetCapabilities response will likewise have the same host and context path.

WMS clients that are configured with a WMS service URL and make only GetMap and 
GetFeatureInfo requests (not driven by the Capabilities
document) should work perfectly without setting the proxy base URL. Even 
better, put each tenant in their own workspace, with their own VirtualHost, 
then even GetCapabilities should work as expected with a VirtualHost for some 
WMS use-cases (not layer groups that span workspaces?). See:
http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/services/virtual-services.html

Kind regards,
Ben.
