EnableOptions and SSL configuration

    XMLWordPrintable

    Description

      As a follow up on MODCLUSTER-400 and a documentation effort for EnableOptions logic, I tried to add EnableOptions to the configuration so as to allow for a "cping/cpong" emulation of the famous AJP feature.
      With the following mod_cluster.conf / httpd.conf (standalone-ha.xml being the same as in MODCLUSTER-400's description):

      one gets this [^hp-ux_error_log-EnableOptions.zip] log:

      Why is the JBoss EAP residing on 10.16.92.191:8645 trying to request SSL Proxy on the virtual host 10.16.92.191:2081? The result is Status: NOTOK on mod_cluser manager console.
      I tried to remove that 10.16.92.191:2081, so as the 10.16.92.191:8745 is the only one ([^hp-ux_error_log-EnableOptions-single-vhost.zip]):

      - Listen 10.16.92.191:2081
      - ServerName 10.16.92.191:2081
      

      The result is a funny trial to request a proxy for the boxe's actual hostname and port 80 no one (netstat) is even listening on:

      I tried to add: RequestHeader set Front-End-Https "On" to the configuration without any luck.
      Finally, I replicated the SSL configuration outside the VirtualHost:

      MemManagerFile "/hell/workspace/hpws22/apache/cache/mod_cluster"
      
      Listen 10.16.92.191:2081
      ServerName 10.16.92.191:2081
      
      SSLEngine on
      SSLProtocol all -SSLv2 -SSLv3
      SSLCipherSuite "EECDH+ECDSA+AESGCM EECDH+aRSA+AESGCM EECDH+ECDSA+SHA384 EECDH+ECDSA+SHA256 EECDH+aRSA+SHA384 EECDH+aRSA+SHA256 EECDH+aRSA+RC4 EECDH EDH+aRSA RC4 !aNULL !eNULL !LOW !3DES !MD5 !EXP !PSK !S    RP !DSS"
      SSLHonorCipherOrder on
      SSLCertificateFile /vault/server.crt
      SSLCertificateKeyFile /vault/server.key
      SSLCACertificateFile /vault/myca.crt
      SSLProxyEngine On
      SSLVerifyDepth 10
      
      <IfModule manager_module>
      
      +++ the same as above +++
      
      </IfModule>
      

      This configuration fixed the aforementioned failed to enable ssl support and actually helped to workaround the MODCLUSTER-400: (log: [^hp-ux_error_log-EnableOptions-SSL_everywhere.zip])

      Why isn't the 10.16.92.191:8745 enough? Is it a configuration error or a ProxyPass/SSL integration bug?
