Use Apache to redirect any requests to node app and redirect http to https












0















I have a express app running together with a apache2 server. I am trying to setup a VirtualHost that proxys to my express app (Wich only serves HTTPS)



So I want to rewrite the http request to my https virtual host that then proxys to my node.js express app.



The express app runs on port 3500



But when I try to reach test.nw-system.de/api-docs
I get a 404 Error



I am running a Linux Ubuntu 18.04 Server, that is running as a VM under ESXi.
I have a Apache2 Server running together with my Node.js App.
I used to connect to it via: https://nw-system.de:3500, wich works without an Issue. But now I wanted to get rid of the port in the URL and use a subdomain instead. The express app only uses https (For encryption of username/password).



<VirtualHost *:80>

        ServerName test.nw-system.de

        ServerAdmin administrator@n-network.de

       RewriteEngine On

        RewriteCond %{HTTPS}  !=on

        RewriteRule ^/?(.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [R,L]

</VirtualHost>



<VirtualHost *:443>

        ServerName test.nw-system.de

        ProxyPass /* http://localhost:3500/

        ProxyPassReverse /* http://localhost:3500/

</VirtualHost>


When I try to reach http://test.nw-system.de/api-docs I expect to get redirected to https://test.nw-system.de/api-docs and then see the swagger api documentation wich is hosted by the express app.
Also I expect my api to be reachable under: https://test.nw-system.de/api/v1



Eg:
https://test.nw-system.de/api/v1/items
wich returns a json response

  • Also, you should probably change http://localhost:3500/ to https://localhost:3500/

I tried all solutions from that topic with/without GlobalKey for Scaffold and Form but the problem wasn't fixed. I tried to build a authentication form with login and signup. But the keyboard doesn't show when I tap the TextFormField at the first time. Then I try to input some letter from physical keyboard, the widget is rebuilt. Like this: login screen Nothing to be log when I run flutter run --verbose, so I logged manually. Every tapping on field, the widget called dispose -> init -> build.
