Subject: External Application protected by a virtual path


Hi,

I have got an issue in protecting an external application via Apache HTTP Server, I put 'pippo' as virtual path for protecting the http://usmt.st.com path.

In the mod_proxy I put:

<IfModule mod_proxy.c>
<Location /pippo>
Require valid-user
AuthType Basic
OssoLegacyApp off
</Location>

ProxyPass /pippo/ http://usmt.st.com/
ProxyPassReverse /pippo/ http://usmt.st.com/


so, when I type the 
http://linbox16.ct6.st.com:7778/pippo/User_Services/Partner_Gateway/Entry_Management/pgw_entry_management.php link (application main page), the USMT external application main page is showed.

One issue is present, some components are not displayed (like images). I had a look in the html code and the images have no absolute path. In the Apache mod_proxy documentation 
(http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mod_proxy.html), for the ProxyPassReverse directive description I have found: "... Apache will not rewrite other response headers, nor will it rewrite URL references inside HTML pages. This means that if the proxied content contains absolute URL references, they will by-pass the proxy..."

I don't know how to solve this issue or create a workaround for that. Have you any idea?

Thanks a lot in advance

Peppe

The doc was very useful: mod_proxy_html is needed in order to fix HTML
links.

Thanks
