I want to configure an apache Auth proxy for access to QuestDB that does not have Authentication system. I try it to VM in a first time.
I made a very simple configuration:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster#localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
AuthType Basic
Authname "Password Required"
AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/.htpasswd
Require valid-user
</Proxy>
ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:9000/
ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:9000/
ProxyRequests Off
</VirtualHost>
I configured my QuestDB with a bind adress http://127.0.0.1:9000.
When I go to http://myipadress and give my Apache authentified user, I have :
Bad request
refresh
Content without CSS
refresh
Bad request
refresh
QuestDB opened
refresh
and looping like this forever.
Any idea ?
When I just set the ProxyPass / ProxyPassReverses lines, I got the same phenomenom.
I have enabled my Apache server mods : proxy_http, proxy, rewrite and cache and the default ones that are enabled.
The below config is working for me. I think the difference is I am not using a DocumentRoot.
<VirtualHost *:80>
ProxyPreserveHost On
<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
AuthType Basic
Authname "Password Required"
AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/.htpasswd
Require valid-user
</Proxy>
ProxyRequests Off
ServerName 127.0.0.1:80
ServerAlias localhost
ProxyPass / http://localhost:9000/
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:9000/
</VirtualHost>

I have a small envirnment where I have 3 services on one server and I want to put all three behind a reverse proxy.
Prometheus server running on port 9090
Prometheus Alert manager running on port 9093
Grafana running on port 3000
My current configuration is below
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName metrics.example.com
Redirect permanent / https://metrics.example.com/
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerAdmin admin#example.com
ServerName metrics.example.com

SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl.crt/example.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl.key/example.key

For now everything works, but Prometheus and Alertmanager don't have own auth, Grafana does. If I uncomment section Grafana stops working. The goal is to protect both Prometheus and Alertmanager with basic auth but not the Grafana instance.
Is it possible (and how) to protect root ("/") directory and /alertmanager subdirectory but with omitting /grafana subdirectory in single vhost?
I have apache2.4 set up and when visiting any apache served web sites basic authentication works great.
Now I have one more webserver running from an other service at port 8000 and I wanted to setup apache as a reverse proxy hoping that it can also impose and handle basic authentication there as well...but instead for asking for user and password it just serves the website unprotected.
my setup is:
<VirtualHost *:8000>
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass / http://192.168.0.101:8000/
ProxyPassReverse / http://192.168.0.101:8000/
<Location />
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Authorization"
AuthUserFile /etc/htpasswd/.htpasswd
require valid-user
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
what am i doing wrong?
Update:
solution found by marked answer:
<VirtualHost *:8000>
ProxyPreserveHost On
<Location />
ProxyPass http://192.168.0.101:8000/
ProxyPassReverse http://192.168.0.101:8000/
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Authorization"
AuthUserFile /etc/htpasswd/.htpasswd
require valid-user
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
Also make sure that apache is configured to listen to that port and also if the proxied server is local it is not running at the same port as listened one
The problem is that Apache doesn't 'link' Proxypass / http://example.com and <Location /> - even though they both try to work with /. This means that Proxypass is handling requests for '/' first, and the Location section is never being used.
You need to move the Proxy config inside the Location, dropping the path, e.g.:
<VirtualHost *:8000>
ProxyPreserveHost On
<Location />
ProxyPass http://192.168.0.101:8000/
ProxyPassReverse http://192.168.0.101:8000/
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Authorization"
AuthUserFile /etc/htpasswd/.htpasswd
require valid-user
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
I have a proxy defined in my apache, there is any way to disable security for a sub path.
In the config I have /app pointing to port localhost:8000 and I want that /app/public point to localhost:8000/public.
Here is my config file (with security for all paths):
<VirtualHost *:80>
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass /app http://localhost:8000
ProxyPassReverse /app http://localhost:8000
ServerName example.com
<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
Authtype Basic
Authname "Password Required"
AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/.htpasswd
Require valid-user
</Proxy>
</VirtualHost>
I found the solution, I used LocationMatch instead Proxy tag, this is the resulting conf file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass /app http://localhost:8000
ProxyPassReverse /app http://localhost:8000
ServerName example.com
<LocationMatch "^(?!/path/to/exclude)/[^/]+">
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
Authtype Basic
Authname "Password Required"
AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/.htpasswd
Require valid-user
</LocationMatch>
</VirtualHost>
How do you combine basic auth with a reverse proxy in Apache?
I have an Apache site currently configured to use basic auth with an htpasswd file using this config:
<VirtualHost *:80>
# Requires: a2enmod proxy_http
ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:8010/
<Location />
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Sensitive"
AuthUserFile /usr/local/myproject/htpasswd
Require valid-user
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
Apache is acting as a wrapper around a Buildbot server being served on port :8010. However, this app has been upgraded so it now requires the use of websockets. The suggested Apache configuration is:
<VirtualHost *:80>
<Location /ws>
ProxyPass ws://127.0.0.1:8010/ws
ProxyPassReverse ws://127.0.0.1:8010/ws
</Location>
ProxyPass /ws !
ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:8010/
ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:8010/
</VirtualHost>
However, this doesn't use any authentication. I tried re-adding my <Location /> section from the previous config, so I now have:
<VirtualHost *:80>
<Location />
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Sensitive"
AuthUserFile /usr/local/myproject/htpasswd
Require valid-user
</Location>
<Location /ws>
ProxyPass ws://127.0.0.1:8010/ws
ProxyPassReverse ws://127.0.0.1:8010/ws
</Location>
ProxyPass /ws !
ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:8010/
ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:8010/
</VirtualHost>
and although Apache now correctly prompts for my username+password, the Buildbot still isn't given authenticated username and still renders for an anonymous user.
How do I fix this config to pass the username (I believe the REMOTE_USER header) through to the web app behind the reverse proxy?
I have a problem with the apache reverse proxy configuration..
I have a service running on port 3000 and when i try to do the login even if it's succesfull it keeps me in the login page..i think it's a cookie session problem but i can't figure out a solution..
ServerAdmin webmaster#localhost
ServerName localhost
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPreserveHost On
<proxy *>
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Restricted Content"
AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/.htpasswd
Require valid-user
</proxy>
ProxyPass "/" "http://127.0.0.1:3000/"
ProxyPassReverse "/" "http://127.0.0.1:3000/"
ProxyPassReverseCookieDomain "http://127.0.0.1:3000/" "http:foo/"
This configuration finally works..
<VirtualHost *:*>
ServerAdmin webmaster#localhost
ServerName http://localhost
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPreserveHost On
<Proxy *>
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
</Proxy>
ProxyErrorOverride On
ProxyPass / http://localhost:3000/
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:3000/
<Location />
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Restricted Content"
AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/.htpasswd
Require valid-user
RequestHeader unset Authorization
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
