Hi,

I'm trying to use the new ReverseProxy Feature on my Hiawatha.
I have another Webserver with pyton on port 8080, but Hiawatha don't load (404) Styles and Scrips from/through the other Webserver.

Here is my config:

VirtualHost {
    Hostname = sub.mysite.de
    WebsiteRoot = D:\htdocs\www    ---> without Hiawatha doesn't start, with ReverseProxy you don't need it, or?!
    AccessLogfile = D:\Server\logs\nzb\access.log
    ErrorLogfile = D:\Server\logs\nzb\error.log
    ReverseProxy ^/(.?)$ http://localhost:8080
    RequireSSL = yes

and here my Access-Log:

Hiawatha version: 8.3.2
Operating System: Win2k8R2 x64


Kind regards,

Are you sure "^/(.?)$" is correct? This will match '/' and '/' followed by any character. My guess is that you need this:

ReverseProxy .* http://localhost:8080/

It's true if you want to proxy all requests. For any other case, Hiawatha needs to know where to find the not-matching files. I just didn't want to make an exception for the WebsiteRoot setting in the single case where ReverseProxy is followed by '.*'.

wow, you're very fast

thanks your fast answer, but ...

with .* or only / i get error code 400

....

instead of 404 in the AccessLog

Is it Hiawatha's typical error message? (big white text centered in dark blue screen)

What is in the logfile? Both Hiawatha's logfile and python's logfile.

no, no erropages. I get the page but without styles and scripts.

from the other Webserver i don't have any logfile, it can't make logfiles. blackboxed :/

It looks to me as if the Python applications is generating the 400 errors.

A year ago, I had the Apache Webserver and it worked. But it doesn't matter if this doesn't work, I like Hiawatha, less memory usage, better security features and faster. I still use hiawatha without the Proxy feature

and thanks for trying to help me

Many applications are written for Apache and Apache only. It's what I call 'bad design'. Your Python application, is it something you downloaded from the web? In other words; can I see the code and try it myself? I'd like to see where the 400 error comes from. Just to make sure it isn't a bug in Hiawatha.

i've wrote you an email with all infos to hugo at hiawatha - webserver . org
