>that can't work, because the client (the browser) needs to send a
correct Host header for Apache to know which virtual host definition to
use. Usually the value for that host header is taken from the location
the user entered into the location bar. If possible you should get some
admin to create dns records for these host names pointing to your IP, so
that everyone can use these host names to access your apps.
I got this working as follows:
/etc/hosts:
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.127.0.0.1
localhost.localdomain localhost egovm0410.4.1.84 rss10.4.1.84
railstest
/usr/local/apache22/conf/httpd.conf:
NameVirtualHost 10.4.1.84
<VirtualHost 10.4.1.84>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/rss(.*) http://10.4.1.84:5432$1 [P]
RewriteRule ^/railstest(.*) http://10.4.1.84:8021$1 [P]
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost 10.4.1.84>
ServerName rss
ProxyPass / http://10.4.1.84:5432/
ProxyPassReverse /rss http://10.4.1.84:5432/
ProxyPreserveHost on
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost 10.4.1.84>
ServerName railstest
ProxyPass / http://10.4.1.84:8021/
ProxyPassReverse /railstest http://10.4.1.84:8021/
ProxyPreserveHost on
</VirtualHost>
Note that three VirtualHost directives are required. The first (default) is
to create the rewrite rules and the next two contain the ProxyPass...
directives that map to the Mongrel servers.
Issues
Typing this in the browser:
http://egovm04.higov.net/rss/about
Correctly accesses the about page, but the address in the browser shows
this:
http://egovm04.higov.net/about
Link mappings within the browser do not work correctly (most likely not an
Apache problem.)
