[jira] [Commented] (QPID-7107) Http Management should be deployable behind a forwarder such as Apache HTTPD

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-7107?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15173828#comment-15173828 ] 

Keith Wall commented on QPID-7107:
----------------------------------


When deploying WMC behind a Apache Httpd, I may want to re-home the application, that is make it appear served from a different root.  This allows may applications to share the same forwarder, or even many web management consoles.

ProxyPass "/myqpid" "http://localhost:8080/"

If I try the above configuration, the WMC mostly works, but the structure servlet fails to load properly.  It seems that the javascript assumes that the structure servlet (service/structure) is served from the root.  It should not make this assumption.  It should form its url relative to index.html.

> For (HTTP) management purposes, the Broker may be deployed behind a forwarder such as Apache HTTP.  Users would connect to Apache HTTP and their requests would be forwarded to the Broker.
> {{HttpRequestInteractiveAuthenticator}} implementations need to be able to generate HTTP redirects.  These currently won't work when a forwarder is in use. HTTP Management plugin servlet's will see the hostname and port of the forwarder rather than the host and port to which the user connected.
> We need to allow  Jetty's {{ForwardedRequestCustomizer}} to be enabled.  This causes Jetty to rewrite the request headers of forwarded requests using information provided by the forwarder (Apache HTTP) in the X-Forwarded headers.
