proxy to https server

[tweakmy]

Hi to all,
Does anyone knows how to use proxy to a https server?

some illustartion:

http://www->https->myserver->https->appserver

I could do a https on myserver and also https on the appserver from myserver

If I proxy http to appserver then it would work but as for now appserver serve pages on https and the DocumentRoot is on another folder

Thanks in advance

I haven't done this, but I believe you can't https proxy like that. Either you use a pass through (essentially it passes the stream through) or you don't use https to the app server and let myserver handle the https part given that the network between myserver and appserver is secure, a common way loadbalancers are configured.

Someone else can probably give a better answer, I looked at this problem a few years ago and we did the second solution.
