Apache ModProxy issue

Hi,

I am trying to configure apache to act as a reverse proxy for my nodejs application on a centos machine.

However, I am receiving an error in the error log saying

Code:

[Thu Nov 29 18:39:26 2012] [error] proxy: HTTP: disabled connection for (localhost)

My Virtual host configuration.

Code:

<VirtualHost *:80>

    ServerAdmin xxx@xxx.xx

    ServerName xxx.com



    ProxyRequests off



    <Proxy *>

        Order deny,allow

        Allow from all

    </Proxy>



    <Location />

        ProxyPass http://localhost:3001/

        ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:3001/

    </Location>

</VirtualHost>

Please help.

Hi,

This could be a SELinux permissions problem. Disable it temporarily running

Code:

setenforce 0

and see if it works

Thanks for that. But SELinux is disabled. I got the fallowing message when running that command.

Code:

setenforce: SELinux is disabled

Are you sure that nodejs is running and listening on 127.0.0.1 and port 3001?
Also better ditch the <Location ..> and use just:

Code:

ProxyPass / http://localhost:3001/

ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:3001/

Thanks, That solved.

I had started apache prior to the nodejs app, assuming every request would be proxied at that instance.

However, this time I started the nodejs app first and then restarted apache, and it worked.

Thanks for your help.
