How to setup a reverse proxy via Apache?

Note: always replace “client.com” with your hostname, “client.backend.verbolia.com” with the given verbolia hostname and “/path_to_verbolia/” with the agreed routed url pattern.

Please find a video tutorial at the bottom of this page!

  • Be sure you installed the required extension: 

a2enmod proxy proxy_http
a2enmod ssl
systemctl restart apache2

  • Append your sites-available configuration.
    Edit your sites-available .conf file and add the ProxyPass instructions: 

SSLProxyEngine On
ProxyPass /path_to_verbolia/ https://client.backend.verbolia.com /path_to_verbolia/
ProxyPassReverse /path_to_verbolia/ https://client.backend.verbolia.com /path_to_verbolia/

  • Restart apache

systemctl restart apache2
