ngnix to apache configure proxy settings

Question

I've to migrate from ngnix web server to apache web server.

The ngnix configured as proxy server for 80 and 443

ngnix confuiguration as following :

 server {
     listen 443;
     server_name my_root_domain.com;
     root /etc/nginx/html;
     location / {
         proxy_pass http://my_root_domain.com.us-east-1.amazonaws.com;
  }

server {
     listen 80;
     server_name my_root_domain.com;
     root /etc/nginx/html;
     location / {
         proxy_pass http://my_root_domain.com.us-east-1.amazonaws.com;
     }
 }

What Apache httpd.conf configuration will be same as above ?

Thnaks in advance

Answer 1

Your nginx config looks wrong, because virtual host looks like TLS (HTTPS) site without SSL directives. 443 port is used for HTTPS, not HTTP. You will need a SSL certificate and private key to create HTTPS site. You can get one for free from StartSSL.

You will need mod_proxy, mod_proxy_http and mod_ssl. Make sure that these lines are uncommented in httpd.conf

LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so
LoadModule mod_ssl.so

Virtual host config would look like this

NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
   ServerName my_root_domain.com
   <Location />
      ProxyPassReverse / http://my_root_domain.com.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
   </Location>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:443>
   ServerName my_root_domain.com
   SSLEngine on
   SSLProtocol all -SSLv2
   SSLCipherSuite ALL:!ADH:!EXPORT:!SSLv2:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM

   SSLCertificateFile /usr/local/apache/conf/ssl.crt
   SSLCertificateKeyFile /usr/local/apache/conf/ssl.key
   SSLCertificateChainFile /usr/local/apache/conf/sub.class1.server.ca.pem

   <Location />
      ProxyPassReverse / http://my_root_domain.com.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
   </Location>
</VirtualHost>
