OpenLiteSpeed as Reverse Proxy [ https ]

[w3services_net]

Hi,

I am trying all possible options with OLWS.
I tried - https://openlitespeed.org/kb/litespeed-cache-openlitespeed-reverse-proxy/

and achieved non-https traffic in testing setup but my https traffic not going to the web server.

What will be the issue? Web Server is accessible using https://X.X.X.X:444. But OLSW showing 500 service unavailable .

I tried checking logs but not error or hit found so not able to get hint. Please help.

Hi,

It seems works from my testing on my testing server. I failed to switch apache default port 80/443 so I will just keep it and change OpenLiteSpeed listener port to 81/444 instead.

1. Apache with port 80

You can try to set debug level to High see if any error log shows.

Best,

Thanks. But apache web server is not internet facing. Openlitespeed is to take internet traffic so we can not change port other than 80/443 in OLWS.
Please guide .

HIHI,

You can set OpenLiteSpeed to use port 80/443 and Apache use other ports of course. What I mean in my test is that I failed to change Apache's default port number for some reason, so I changed OpenLitespeed port instead. And test result indicated that there's no 500 or other error when OpenLiteSpeed run as reverse proxy.

Best,
Eric
