Apache websockets with proxy_wstunnel and mosquitto
Spend last weekend trying to make apache with proxy_wstunnel to work.
The solution recommended is to add this in the apache config:
ProxyRequests off
ProxyPass /mqtt ws://127.0.0.1:8082
ProxyPassReverse /mqtt ws://127.0.0.1:8082
But no matter what it is a no go. So, where is the problem?
It’s the libwebsockets it doesn’t understand custom http headers X-… but apache adds some.
To add support for them in the file lextable-strings.h append before the blank string :
“x-forwarded-server”,
“x-forwarded-for”,
“x-forwarded-host”,
