I've set up an application proxy for my app, but when I try to access the URL in my test shop, it returns a 404 error.
Proxy URL: http://localhost:3000
Path: tools/track
Test Shop Proxy URL: http://harber-inc8996.myshopify.com/tools/track
When I go to that proxy URL (which I believe you can see for yourself), it returns a 404 error.
Now that I'm writing this out, I'm wondering...is the issue that the Proxy URL can't be localhost?
You can't use localhost as a proxy.
The reason behind this is that Shopify actually has to be able to send a request to the proxy location. From Shopify's perspective localhost is... itself.
You have to provide a publicly accessible address for your proxy.
There are a couple of ways to do this. The easiest/most popular way to go is either with localtunnel or showoff.io. Localtunnel is free but gives you different URL every time you start it. Showoff will give you a permanent address but costs money. Such is life.

I recently bought a domain name at OVH for an app I hosted on Heroku. I then paid for the dynos in order to set an automatic SSL certificate.
Everything seems to me working fine:
Domain Status Last Updated
─────────── ─────────── ────────────
mpjrigot.eu Cert issued 2 minutes
mpjrigot.fr Cert issued 2 minutes
But my URL is still in HTTP. What am I missing?
EDIT
I'm using React.js for this app
I also have a Ruby on Rails back but for nom i'm keeping that on the heroku.app, works fine
2nd EDIT
Using react-https-redirect, force-https or react-ssl-redirect...
Basically, chrome tells me that "this is not a safe space", and that this is a fake https that might want to steal the user's passwords and stuff
So I got an SSL that is set on my HerokuApp,
I got a domain on OVH that points to the IP of the app
But the http isn't secure somehow
I really think I missed something obvious as I'm new to this...
You can add HTTPS to your app with the following methods.
Method1 (Recommended)
Since, you're using rails for the backend, you can configure your rails app to always use HTTPS.
in your production.rb add
config.force_ssl = true
More Info: https://help.heroku.com/J2R1S4T8/can-heroku-force-an-application-to-use-ssl-tls
ActionDispatch SSL: https://api.rubyonrails.org/v6.1.4/classes/ActionDispatch/SSL.html
Method2 (Easy Setup)
You can also signup for cloudflare's free plan and easily setup https redirects with cloudflare's 'Always Use HTTPS' or 'Automatic HTTPS Rewrites' feature.
The 'Always Use HTTPS' feature will redirect all http requests on your site to https address.
The 'Automatic HTTP Rewrites' feature will change the HTTP links on your site to HTTPS links.

What am I missing?
Heroku provides a certificate, so you should be able to access your application using https://. However it does not redirect HTTP requests to HTTPS for you:
Redirects need to be performed at the application level as the Heroku router does not provide this functionality. You should code the redirect logic into your application.
Exactly how you do that depends on the language and libraries or framework that you are using. Several common examples are listed in the link I provided above.
If you edit your question to tell us what technology you have used to build your application I'll be happy to add those details to this answer. In case you are using Scala, please see How to disable HTTP requests on Heroku and/or auto-redirect to HTTPS?
solution
I eventually read about Heroku needing a specific host that takes in the address they tell you to point to when setting a domain name...
So I switched to Gandi for my domain name and set the ALIAS to point to said adress
Works like a charm
I'm attempting to use Keycloak for some future projects and it's still very new to me so I'm plugging away reading through the docs and searching for issues online but I'm currently stumped on one thing - I have a vuejs app I’ve added as a client (127.0.0.1:3001), I have a reverse proxy setup in IIS (idp.mc.local) and then a docker container on Windows with keycloak running (127.0.0.1:8080), when I attempt to login, instead of being redirected back to the vuejs client I am just getting redirected to the root of the reverse proxy with the state value in the url, as in the network logs in the screenshot below:
Network logs showing incorrected 'Location' redirect
If I don’t set a front end url for the realm and bypass the proxy / hook my vuejs client to login via Keycloak directly on 127.0.0.1:8080, it redirects to 127.0.0.1:3001/#state… correctly, as below:
Network logs showing correct 'Location' redirect
I can't spot any way to sort this issue, I thought the front end url for the realm should state the proxy address? I can't see why Keycloak would redirect to it at the end of the login process rather than to my client app url, the redirect_uri is being ignored by keycloak and for some reason taking me back to the root of my proxy domain. If I actually manually visit 127.0.0.1:3001/#state… with the state value copied in from the incorrect redirect, I log in successfully.
It's baffling me and any help would be appreciated!
The answer did turn out to be an IIS related issue with the setup of Application Request Routing / ARR being the problem. What was needed was to edit the settings for IIS Application Request Routing and uncheck the option:
Reverse rewrite host in response headers as can be seen in the image below:
IIS ARR Checkbox to untick
Hopefully this will be helpful for someone else who might have the same issue at some point!
We have a Java/Jetty server. The servlets on this server are called by some of our internal applications over http.
I have been asked to create a webapp /website which will use many of these servlets / api.
However this is an external customer facing website and needs to be served over https / ssl. The servelet urls look like
http://internalServer:9999?parameters.
Now my webapp is ready and has been deployed on Apache on Debian. Everything works fine but as soon as I enable
https/ssl the backend calls do not go through. On chrome I get "Mixed content. Page was loaded on https but is requestig resource over http...". On Safari I get -could not load resource due to access control checks.
I understand the reasons for these errors but I would like to know ways to solve this.
I have full control over apache server and website code.
I have very limited control over internal jetty server and no control over servelt code.(don't want to mess with existing apps).
Is there something I can do just with apache configuration? can I use it as a reverse proxy for the Jetty(http) server?
Thanks for your help.
"Mixed content. Page was loaded on https but is requestig resource over http..."
That error message means your HTML has resources that are being requested over http://... specifically.
You'll need to fix your HTML (and any references in javascript and css) that request resources (or references resources) to also use https://....
If you try to call an http service from an https site you will have Mixed content error.
You can avoid that error using apache2 proxy settings inside your example.org.conf
You can find it inside the folder /apache2/sites-enabled
Add some code:
<VirtualHost *:443>
...
ProxyPass /service1 http://internalServer:9999
ProxyPassReverse /service1 http://internalServer:9999
</VirtuaHost>
From your https site you have to fetch the url
https://example.org/service1`
to reach the service.
In that way you can call your services http from a https site.
We've been struggling with a problem involving a Magento website and a reverse proxy.
Server A is used as a reverse proxy (apache) and redirects incoming subdomain.domain.com/appname to local-ip/appname hosted on server B (apache as well).
What is really weird is that everything works fine on backend. We can login, modify stuff, everything perfectly normal there.
But on frontend nothing works and there is an infinite redirection.
However setting up Magento with local-ip/appname as the base url, and accessing it through subdomain.domain.com/appname (not with local-ip/appname)
works fine if accessed from local network.
As soon as Magento uses adress subdomain.domain.com/appname as base url, frontend gives an infinite redirection error.
If anyone has any input on that we would really appreciate.
Thanks!
For the record, reverse proxy needed the directive
ProxyPreserveHost On
As it is set to Off by default there was an infinite redirection as Magento was trying to access the external address which was transformed as local ip by reverse proxy ans so on.
With ProxyPreserveHost On reverse proxy transmits original url to the website behind him. As a consequence Magento can be set up with external address as base url.
I am trying to point www.mydomain.example/blogs to www.anotherdomain.example/blog.html and still keep the URL the same, any ideas?
I have tried so many different methods and the URL changes to the URL im am redirecting to.
Thanks
Unless both domains are hosted on the same server and you have access via the file system, you will probably need a proxy on mydomain.example that forwards the requests to anotherdomain.example, fetched the response and forwards it back to the client.
