Just wondering if there is way of setting Fastpath Webchat to use URL without specifying port (9090). In many cases port 9090 is filtered and people can’t use the feature. I have came up with solution using rewrite/proxy engine on Apache. All is good as far as actually clicking on “chat” button which is trying to access server on port 9090. I can describe in more details if anyone is more interested what am I looking for.
I have an apache install doing a reverse proxy for port 9090.
proxyRequests off
proxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass /webchat/ http://localhost:9090/webchat/
ProxyPassReverse /webchat/ http://localhost:9090/webchat/
you can also search previous posts for more info.
Thanks for information, I will try later on with my Apache and see how this goes.
I have these lines in a file sparkproxy.conf in the /etc/httpd/conf.d/ directory (CentOS 5.5). I don’t think there’s any other config needed but it’s been a while since I configured the proxy.
Don’t worry about that, I have my way around Apache I actually prefer to use .htaccess for these little things as tehy do not require server’s restart. Currently I’m actually using rewrite engine with P directive which is probably working the same way as you suggested.
