HAProxy with URL Prefix

I need to add prefix to the URL and have it serve content from another URL . Basically the HAProxy is running on another server and I have artifactory server on another . The artifactory listens on 8081 , so I hit artifactoryserverIp:8081 and artifactory homepage displays . Now if I hit HAProxyServer/abcartifactory in browser , the URL should stay the same , but it should internally hit artifactoryserverIp:8081.

Here is my configuration

frontend http
 bind *:80
 acl host_is_artifactory path_beg /abcartifactory
 use_backend artifactory-backend if host_is_artifactory

backend artifactory-backend
 reqrep ^([^\ :]*)\ /(.*) \1\ /abcartifactory/\2
 server node1 artifactoryserver:8081

The output is that the browser says cannot find resource

Solution

  • Try this

     frontend http
  bind *:80
  acl host_is_artifactory path_beg /abcartifactory
  use_backend artifactory-backend if host_is_artifactory

 backend artifactory-backend
  reqrep ^([^\ ]*\ /)abcartifactory [/]?(.*)   \1\2
  server node1 artifactoryserver:8081
