Web proxying with Splunk

PaulEscher

Enabling web proxy via apache through splunk.

**I have configured the web.conf as such:** 
[settings] 
enableSplunkWebSSL = 0 
root_endpoint = /splunk 
[general] 
serverName = myserver 
trustedIP = 127.0.0.1

**and my apache.conf is as such:**
# proxy configuration 
ProxyRequests Off 
<Proxy *>   
Order deny,allow   
Allow from all 
</Proxy> 
ProxyPass /splunk/ http://www.myserver.com:8000/ 
ProxyPassReverse /splunk/ http://www.myserver.com:8000/

And I am unable to get everything working. Am I missing something simple?

With some settings I can get the login, but the CSS's are not coming in, and in other configurations I get the login (with the CSS's), but then I get a login error during submittal.

Any suggetions welcome.

My goal is to use https://www.myservername.com/splunk/ to replace http://www.myservername.com:8000/splunk/

Thanks.

Paul

The proxy-pass should look like this:

ProxyPass /splunk http://www.myserver.com:8000/splunk
ProxyPassReverse /splunk http://www.myserver.com:8000/splunk
