8.5.1 reverse proxy problem

HCL Domino Domino Forum

Hello,A long time ago, we configured a reverse proxy with Apache to access several mail servers from the Internet.

Since a recent upgrade of the primary server, when we try to access databases with the mail85.ntf template, it fails.

If we revert the template to dwa7.ntf or inotes6.ntf on the same server, it works…

Does anyone configure successfully a reverse proxy access with mail85.ntf templates ?

Regards

Hello and thanks for your responses.Here are more details :

Domino 8.5.1 FP2 server (primary) running on W2K3

Domino 6.5.6 FP2 servers (secondary) running on different OS

SLES with Apache 2.0.55 configured as a reverse proxy, rewrite engine activated

I configured SSO and the HTTP task of Domino, the default page opens a Domino Web Access redirect database (iwaredir.ntf) configured as MAILSERVER.

Here is a sample of the httpd.conf

RewriteEngine on

RewriteLog /apache2/logs/webmailacme-rewrite_log

RewriteLogLevel 9

# -- Generique pour acceder au dossier inotes (commun aux serveurs)    

RewriteRule ^/iNotes/Forms(.*)$ http://sles10.acme.lan/iNotes/Forms$1 [P]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^(.*)sles10(.*)

RewriteRule ^(.*)sles10(.*) http://sles10.acme.lan/$2 [P]

ProxyPass /sles10/ http://sles10.acme.lan/

ProxyPassReverse /sles10/ http://sles10.acme.lan/

# -- Chemin retour par defaut

ProxyPassReverse / http:/sles10.acme.lan/

The problem is with databases with the mail85.ntf template applied.

If I convert the databases back to inotes6.ntf, the webmail is fine.

I think something has changed with the template but I don’t know what.

Thank you for you help.
